At 1,200 acres Standley Lake is the largest body of water in Westminster, and the 3rd largest reservoir in the Denver Metro Area. A number of parks and beaches line its shores and a series of trails make their way around most of its perimeter. The views looking west are incredible with the mountains looming in the background.

Bald Eagle Viewing Hide

Highlight • Rest Area

If you're a bird enthusiast, the Bald Eagle Viewing Hide is a must-see. It's in a quiet spot with an elevated view, so spotting eagles is way easier. The best times to go are early mornings or late afternoons when the eagles are more active. Don’t forget your binoculars and camera!
