Spring Canyon Park is a 100 acre park on the western outskirts of Fort Collins, Colorado. There are two roads to access the park. The main entrance (South) is off West Horsetooth Road. The second entrance (North) is by taking Drake Road to South Overland Trail to Spring Creek Trail. Each access has a parking lot. Choose an entrance based on which is closer to the recreational facility you want to access.

A BMX racing course, sand volleyball courts, basketball courts, a chainsaw sculpture, the bridge mural, large shelters and big open grassy meadows are best accessed from the north parking area. Inspiration playground, the tennis courts, and the dog park are best accessed from the south parking area. The skate park and the ball fields are about half way between either parking area.

A printable map can be found online.
