Birding is a fun and easy to learn new hobby which allows us to take the time to observe the living world around us and to spend time in nature. Bird watching inspires us to stay curious and use our senses to observe these wonderful animals in their natural environments. Take the time to identify Eldorado's large diversity of birds, while taking in moments you can share not only with the group, but also your family and friends.

The program is free, but a valid Colorado State Park's Pass is required to enter and can be purchased at the entrance station or visitor center. The fee is $10 per vehicle.

Where and when to meet: Meet at the Eldorado Canyon State Park Visitor Center at 9 Kneale Road, Eldorado Springs, CO. The walk will begin promptly at 4:30 - please arrive a few minutes early. Click here for detailed info about the park.
