in Boulder, CO 80302about Walker Ranch:
Walker Ranch is a forest park that is part of Boulder County's Open Space. It once was one of the largest cattle ranches in Colorado; in 1882, James and Phoebe Walker filed a claim to homestead 160 acres of open meadow with a year-round spring. The homestead and its many outbuildings are the focal point of the park's designated historic district and are in the process of being fully restored.
South Boulder Creek flows through Walker Ranch from Gross Reservoir located upstream and west of the open space boundaries. Both bait and fly fishing are permitted. The stream is periodically stocked with rainbow trout.
Group picnic shelters and miles of trails for hiking, biking, and equestrian use round out the offerings.
