Mission

Bluff Lake Nature Center is a unique urban natural area dedicated to educating and inspiring people of all ages to respect, protect, and connect with our natural world.

About

Bluff Lake Nature Center is free and open to the public 365 days a year from sunrise to sunset, and we have over 50,000 free choice visitors visit the site each year. Bluff Lake is located in the midst of a densely populated urban area, and makes the outdoors accessible to thousands of Denver area families. We provide environmental science education to over 8,000 kids per year through school field trips, 85% of which are free to the school. In addition to our field trip programs, we provide engaging experiences for thousands more each year through free family days, fireside chats, outreach programs, bird walks, and more. We also host 10 weeks of summer camp each year, where hundreds of students get the chance to explore our site.
