Homestead Ranch Regional Park Site
An original homestead site settled in 1874, Homestead Ranch Regional Park features diverse topography ranging from rolling, open meadows to tree-covered bluffs running the length of the park. A natural spring-fed pond and creek in the central valley of the park attract deer, coyotes, foxes, waterfowl, and occasional pronghorns. Rattlesnake Butte, a prominent landmark in eastern El Paso County from which visitors can see the Front Range and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in the distance, is located within the park.
Homestead Ranch Regional Park opened in the fall of 1998. The park will not include permanent facilities at the time of opening, however, visitors will be able to access trails. View PDF of Homestead Ranch Regional Park and trails.
