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…
