About Mueller State Park

Mueller State Park covers roughly 5,100 acres on the western side of Pikes Peak. Its terrain mixes conifer and aspen woodland, wet areas near springs, open grassland, and granite outcrops. Visitors can hike, camp, watch wildlife, and in winter snowshoe or ski. The park also has a visitor center, and its history includes Ute hunting grounds, mining-era settlement, and later ranching before conservation groups and state agencies acquired the land.
