Take advantage of the outdoors in a multitude of ways in the open space areas of Edwards.  From the rivers to the soccer fields and even the trails, it’s easy to enjoy all the outdoors has to offer in such a beautiful setting.

The Eagle River Preserve, a 72-acre site, located in the heart of Edwards, has been heralded as the community’s “Central Park”. Surrounded on three sides by development and bordered by a beautiful quarter-mile stretch of the Eagle River on the north, the property is owned by Eagle County.

The property is rich with history of the Eagle River Valley…as home for Native Americans, next as a stage stop, and finally as a working ranch. Now, because of tremendous community interest and financial support, it will forever remain green-space for residents — human and wildlife alike — to enjoy.

Family fun at the Eagle River Preserve includes: nature walks, wildlife viewing, fly fishing, kite flying, picnics, bicycling, an off leash dog park, jogging, orienteering, snowshoeing, wildlife viewing, bird watching, frisbee and enjoying the sun on your face!
