Confluence Park... A Wildlife and Outdoor Oasis in Delta, Colorado

Confluence Park... A Wildlife and Outdoor Oasis in Delta, Colorado. The park covers 265 acres within the Delta Town limits, and this includes a 60 acre lake. There are wooded walking trails that follow the river and loop around the lake. The lake gets stocked once a year with trout, too. At least twice a year there are different fishing events organized just for kids under 16 years of ago. There's also a handicapped accessible fishing area.

 

Bring a picnic lunch and the kids and the dog. Confluence Park has a skate park, easy hiking trails for the kids and three fenced in dog areas. There are several picnic areas around the lake, or head out on one of the wooded trails and find that perfect spot for lunch.

Confluence Park... A Wildlife and Outdoor Oasis in Delta, Colorado, has several miles of wooded walking trails. To the east are views of the West Elk Mountains and to the north is Grand Mesa. Some of the trails follow the Gunnison River. This is a great place to view all different kinds of birds and other small wildlife. There is a family of foxes that call this park home.

 

It's called Confluence Park because this is where the Uncompahgre River meets the Gunnison River. You can cross a cable bridge to the see the confluence of the two rivers.

Hi, Debbie...that bridge is something with the river rushing under you. I love it. Here's a picture of a guy that rode his bike over the bridge. It swings and sways with each step you take.

I also did a photo shot of my daughter while at Confluence Park. It's a great setting for this kind of thing.

Hi, Suzanne...thanks. I think she's beautiful, too. The park is a great place to get wonderful fall portrait pictures.

Hi, Joan...This is a nice park and it's great for a break in the middle of the day or to just take a long walk.

Debbie, areas like Confluence Park Delta Colorado always seem to attract a larger variety of wildlife.  I haven't been on a cable bridge in a long time... they can be a little scary when they start swaying in the wind.

Hi, Nick...you are so right. The foxes are neat to see when they come up on the trails, and they aren't shy of people.

Hi, Gloria...The bridge is fun. It moves alot even when one person is the only one crossing it.

Debbie, if I ever get up your way, we'll have to take Bear and my "boys" here.  My guys would love all differences in the area and would spend the day chasing all of those leaves, LOL.

Hi, Roy...a bottle of wine sounds good just about anytime.

Hi, Sharon...I have to make sure no one else is on the bridge when I walk across it. I don't like a whole lot of movement in a bridge. This one does swing and sway...even with one person on it.

Hi, Juli...Bear is so big now. His shoulder comes up almost to my hip. He's about the size of a mini pony. He can back up to our couch and just sit his butt down on it.
