Limon Wetlands

This 14 acre site is located south of Limon and contains 8.2 acres of wetlands and 1.25 acres of open water.

The Limon Colorado Wetlands are some of the most ecologically diverse habitats in the state of Colorado. These wetlands were created in the late 1990s when the Town of Limon retired a wastewater discharge lagoon and transformed it into a wetland basin. The resulting wetlands are home to over 100 species of birds, amphibians, and other wildlife, providing a beautiful and unique setting for recreational activities. The Limon Colorado Wetlands is a great place to observe Yellow-headed Blackbird, White-Faced Ibis, American Coot, Killdeer, American Avocet, Mallard, Green-Winged Teal, Spider, and Marsh Wren...

Just follow the Limon Pedestrian/Bicycle Trail from the Doug Kissel Fishing Pond under the railroad south about 1500 feet.
