8.2mi from Colorado City · 16 sites · Tents, RVsHummingbird Ranch is a sprawling 350+ acre ranch property in Colorado's Spanish Peaks Country, offering 360-degree panoramic views of the Wet Mountains, the open plains, and the iconic Spanish Peaks. Just 12 minutes from I-25 and 2.5 hours south of Denver, the ranch sits at roughly 6,800 feet in elevation — high enough for spectacular dark skies and cool mountain breezes, but easy to reach on 2WD-friendly roads.
Choose your own campsite across wide-open and varied terrain: ridge-lines with panoramic views, sheltered spots nestled in the scrub oak, and plenty of open ground for vehicles as large as full-sized RVs. Spread out, find your own private corner of the ranch and settle in. Wildlife is part of the experience — elk, deer, fox, wild turkey, and excellent bird-watching — including of course the hummingbirds that gave the ranch its name.
Enjoy privacy, quiet, and some of the darkest night skies you'll find this close to I-25.
Nearby, you'll find Bishop's Castle (a one-of-a-kind hand-built stone fortress just a short drive away), Lake Isabel for fishing and hiking, the San Isabel National Forest, the Frontier Pathways Scenic Byway, and Great Sand Dunes National Park for a day trip. The Highway of Legends Scenic Byway is also within reach for an unforgettable drive through historic mountain passes.
