Wildlife Viewing - GLENDO
About:
Glendo State Park offers a great opportunity for wildlife viewing. Mule deer, whitetail deer, antelope, coyotes, turkeys and many bird species are seen regularly at the park. If you are interested in bird watching we recommend visiting the Wetlands Area. Many of our trails are great for seeing birds and other wildlife.
More information:
- Park Headquarters has four backpacks with quality binoculars, books and pamphlets that can be checked out to view wildlife. Please call in advance to make sure someone is available at Park Headquarters to check one out to you. There is no additional fee for this, however donations are welcome.
