Corwina, O’Fallon, and Pence Parks
Corwina, O’Fallon, and Pence Parks share boundaries and embody the quintessential characteristics of the Denver Mountain Parks System: backcountry forests, challenging trails, flowing water and shaded picnic sites. Corwina and O’Fallon parks center directly on Bear Creek. They each have beautiful stone structures and wonderful picnic sites. Pence Park has a picnic site, hiking trail and Denver’s first sled run. Together the parks comprise 1,478 acres of contiguous open space. The majority of the acreage is open space that protects and sustains natural resources.
