Welcome to the Arkansas Headwaters, one of the nation's
premier recreation areas! Stretching for almost 150 miles along
the Arkansas River, the area offers abundant and outstanding opportunities
for fishing, rafting, kayaking, picnicking, hiking, camping, mountain
biking, and sightseeing among deep canyons, broad valleys and towering
mountain peaks. The cities and towns along the river - Leadville,
Buena Vista, Poncha Springs, Salida, Canon City, Florence and Pueblo
- offer fine dining, lodging and plenty of Western hospitality.
The Arkansas Headwaters Recreation Area (AHRA) is a landmark cooperative
effort of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management and Colorado State
Parks. Through this partnership, the agencies provide visitors with
outstanding recreation opportunities and care for the nationally
significant natural resources of the Arkansas Valley.
From the peaks to the prairies, the Arkansas River is a powerful
influence, shaping lives and landscapes…
