Located in the broad high mountain valley of south-central Colorado, the County of Conejos, once known as a flourishing mining region is today regarded as a sportsman's paradise. From the surrounding river tributaries which offer exquisite fly-fishing opportunities to the many national forests and wilderness areas that house miles of terrain to camp, hike and hunt, this area offers more to see and do than one might initially realize. In fact, this county's natural resources are surpassed only by its rich history found in such attractions as the Old Spanish Historic Trail, the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railway and Our Lady of Guadalupe, the oldest church in the state.
Branded as the state’s Spanish Peaks Country, this southwestern Colorado county, with its historic ties to mining, is believed to be a place of hidden treasure. Home to the Sangre de Cristo range and the Huerfano Butte, this area is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts for the many mountains its residents and visitors like to climb, hike, hunt, camp and ski. Huerfano County also boasts Lathrop State Park with its Horseshoe and Martin Lakes as well as the Cuchara Mountain Park, both known to provide a variety of relaxing outdoor activities as varied as fishing and snowboarding. Most appealing of all, however, is the quiet country setting. With a population of fewer than 10,000 people, this southern Colorado county is still pristine and largely untouched by the development of some if the neighboring regions. Buy land here today and experience this Rocky Mountain paradise first hand.
