Niedrach Nature Trail and Gazebo Boardwalk

Home to one of the few nesting bald eagles on Colorado’s Front Range, Barr Lake State Park offers a pleasant day hike along a prairie reservoir. Opportunities for watching the hundreds of water birds that stop over, nest, or stay here are provided by a boardwalk and a gazebo situated in prime viewing areas. Kids love to use binoculars to watch the large birds take off and land on the water.
