Woodland Park

Among the cities of Colorado, Woodland Park stands out for its high-altitude setting on the northern slopes of Pikes Peak. At about 8,465 feet (2,580 m), this Teller County community sits in the Ute Pass area, where forested terrain leads toward Pike National Forest and the Rampart Range. Pikes Peak, west of Colorado Springs, is the defining summit of the wider area and has long shaped travel through the pass. In town, the Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center presents fossil finds and research on prehistoric life from the region and beyond. Woodland Park has the practical character of a mountain community, with access to forests, trails and the Pikes Peak corridor rather than the pace of Front Range cities.
