Fountain Creek Nature Center features wetlands and marshes that  support Colorado wildlife.  The wetlands pass through a shortgrass prairie ecosystem. The Fountain Creek Regional Park is a quiet preserve for wildlife and also serves as an outdoor classroom for visitors of all ages. White-tailed deer, lizards, toads, frogs, beaver, muskrat, arthropods, and an abundant diversity of birds are just a few of the animals that share this habitat.

Programs are held throughout the year.  Check the Event calendar for upcoming events.

The Fountain Creek Nature Center has meeting rooms available for public programs, family events and birthday parties.
