There are special places and unique vistas around nearly every Colorado corner. You can help ensure these places exist for generations to come by staying on roads and trails, keeping speeds in check, leaving campsites and picnic spots just as you found them, and following instructional signs while you’re out and about in our state.

How to Give Back to These Special Places

The El Pueblo History Museum — nationally honored by the Institute of Museum and Library Services — incorporates a reconstructed and immersive 1840s trading post, an archeological site, and innovative exhibitions that explore the many cultural and ethnic groups of the region. <a href="https://www.historycolorado.org/exhibit/borderlands">Borderlands of Southern Colorado</a> details the region’s complex geopolitical border history and ongoing borders of cultures, ethnicities, landscapes, industries, religions and identities. Or, visit <a href="https://www.historycolorado.org/exhibit/tamburitzans">Tamburitzans: On Tour</a>, which explores the history and cultural tradition of Pueblo’s Tamburitzans, Croatian and Slovenian musical performance groups with deep ties to the local community. Located in downtown Pueblo, the museum is just steps from the Historic Arkansas Riverwalk, which includes one of the longest paintings in the world among many other art pieces, boat rides, restaurants, shops, and entertainment.
