Much of Colorado is open to the public. Golden expanses of National Grassland, forested mountains of pine, slickrock canyons and 100,000-acre-plus roadless areas can be enjoyed and savored any time of year, often without a fee. Explore our national forests and grasslands, wilderness areas and land set aside by the BLM, in addition to our 41 state parks.
