Yampa River Botanic Park is located in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. It is situated in a valley beside the Yampa river at an altitude of 6800 feet above sea level. The park is absolutely lovely. It contains six acres of ponds, sculptures, and over 40 gardens. Some of these are a butterfly garden, children's garden, herb garden, hummingbird garden, pioneer garden, and a tranquility garden.
I imagine it would be a little chilly in October!
ReplyDeleteYes, indeed! And covered with snow!
DeleteHi Sherry,
ReplyDeleteThat's quite the elevation for a botanic park. The pictures do indeed reveal a gorgeous place. And the price is right.
Hope you had a lovely weekend, Sherry.
