Bluff Lake Nature Center

Come explore nature in the city! Bluff Lake Nature Center is a unique urban natural area dedicated to educating and inspiring people of all ages to respect, protect, and connect with our natural world. Bluff Lake is a nonprofit agency that owns and manages a unique urban wildlife refuge and outdoor classroom in Denver. The refuge is home to an abundance of animals and native plants which thrive in a variety of habitats. The site is free for visitors, but we do not allow bikes, dogs, or fishing in order to protect our wildlife. We have 1.5+ miles of trails, nature play areas, and scenic overlooks: perfect for families, birdwatchers, and joggers!
