Staunton State Park

Staunton State Park is located approximately 40 miles southwest of downtown Denver, north of US Highway 285 and about six miles west of Conifer.

The park sees moderate to heavy use in the late spring to early fall. This park contains hiking, biking, photography and climbing. There is an entrance fee.
