Ute Trail Park

A Green Neighborhood Haven

Found in the residential streets of Lakewood, Colorado, Ute Trail Park is that perfect little green space where you can escape without having to venture far from home. It's nothing fancy or overwhelming - just a peaceful spot where you can spread out a blanket for a picnic, watch the kids play, or take your four-legged friend for a leisurely stroll.

Modern Play Space

The playground got a complete makeover in January 2019, providing updated equipment for the neighborhood. The updated equipment is part of a neighborhood effort to create better recreational spaces for local families. If you've got little ones with energy to burn, this is your spot.

Beyond the Boundaries

What makes this park particularly special is its seamless connection to the Ravine Open Space. When you're feeling like extending your outdoor adventure, just follow the path from the park into this additional natural area with its winding trails. It's like getting two outdoor experiences in one visit.

Growing Together

The Ute Trail Community Garden is the heart of this park's community spirit. With 52 plots available to local green thumbs - including some specifically reserved for Hutchinson Elementary School - it's where neighbors become friends over shared gardening tips and harvests. It's nice to see both plants and relationships flourishing in the same space.

The Practical Stuff

You'll find clean restrooms here (always a plus for any park outing) and ample parking spaces, so you won't have to circle the block looking for somewhere to leave your car.

A Place to Breathe

The park offers some lovely views of the surrounding area that make it an ideal spot to just sit and be for a while. No matter if you're looking for a place to burn off some energy or simply want to sit under a tree with a good book, Ute Trail Park strikes that perfect balance between recreational space and natural retreat.
