State Park - San Luis

Area Map |
In the shadow of the Great Sand Dunes National Monument, sits peaceful San Luis
State Park and Wildlife Area. Nestled among low sand dunes in this unique desert
are wildlife-laden wetlands and approximately nine miles of easy, level hiking
and biking trails. Waterfowl, shorebirds, songbirds and raptors fill the sky over
this outstanding watchable wildlife area most of the year. In addition, big game
such as deer and elk can be seen roaming the surrounding ranchland. Bison are
found at the nearby Rocky Mountain Bison Ranch.
San Luis State Park features
a modern campground with showers and electricity, fishing, windsurfing, boating,
water skiing, picnicking and photographic opportunities. The park is located just
15 minutes west of the Great Sand Dunes on the Los Caminos Antiquos Scenic and
Historic Byway.
