Larimer County

Larimer County pairs high Rocky Mountain terrain with Front Range city life in a way that reflects its position between Colorado’s Continental Divide and the High Plains. The Cache la Poudre River runs east from the mountains through Poudre Canyon and Fort Collins; a protected upper reach is Colorado’s only federally designated Wild and Scenic River. Rocky Mountain National Park occupies part of the county’s western high country, while Estes Park and Fort Collins connect mountain travel to established communities. Fort Collins is home to Colorado State University, adding a major educational and cultural presence to this large county.
