Pikes Peak visible from downtown Woodland Park
Live like a local

The view is spectacular. The routine is better.

Relocation gets real when you can picture a Tuesday evening, a youth-sports Saturday and a quiet Sunday morning—not just a scenic overlook.

Center of town

Memorial Park works like Woodland Park’s living room.

The 3.3-acre park sits beside City Hall and combines playgrounds, a pond used for fishing and seasonal ice skating, basketball, picnic shelters, performance space and community events. The city identifies the Fourth of July celebration, Cruise Above the Clouds, arts-and-crafts events and the Woodland Park Farmers Market among its signature uses.

Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center
A genuine hometown attraction

There is a working paleontology operation in town.

The Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center is a 12,000-square-foot museum focused on Cretaceous fossils, with guided tours, more than 30 specimens, hands-on exhibits and views into a working fossil-preparation lab. It is open year-round seven days a week, weather permitting.

That matters for relocation because it gives Woodland Park a piece of culture and education that is unusually specific to the community—not merely another outdoor amenity.

Not every outing requires packing the car.

The city manages 66.67 acres of developed parks, 38.37 acres of open space and greenways, and 4.61 miles of trails. The local system includes the Downtown Mile, Centennial Trail, Crestwood connections and access toward larger forest routes.
