A city above the clouds with a down-to-earth community

Charming Scenic Wooded Outdoors Hiking

Woodland Park is bordered by the Pike National Forest, and despite its motto as “the city above the clouds,” it still looks up to the towering Pikes Peak to the south. Known for its scenic surroundings, locals enjoy Woodland Park for its immediate access to expansive hiking trails and welcoming, laidback community.

There’s a small town atmosphere that encompasses Woodland Park. Most of the town’s offerings line West Midland Ave., and there’s everything from donut shops to popular delis that serve the area.

Woodland Park’s active community puts on hundreds of events and celebrations throughout the year, including art shows and a well-attended Christmas parade. The east side of the city is made up of picturesque mountainside homes and impressive apartment complexes, all shrouded by pristine wilderness. Despite its secluded location, there are plenty of highways that make the area accessible, including US-24, and Colorado Springs is only 30 minutes to the southeast.
