Hiking, biking, and rock-climbing are all part of the plans for Fishers Canyon Open Space, a new 343-acre open space in Colorado Springs in the southwestern part of the city. Pike National Forest borders the property to the west, with Cheyenne Mountain State Park to its south.
The new master plan, approved in early May, will guide strategies for enhancing and managing the open space for the next 15-20 years. It includes around 9-10 miles of trails, including equestrian considerations and a hiking-only loop with trailhead parking that’s ADA accessible.
