Three main trailheads provide parking and access to the park.

Matthews Winters From Sheraton: Turn right (north) on Union Blvd. Stay in left lane and turn left (west) at 6th Avenue. In 2.6 miles, merge onto I-70 W toward GRAND JCT. Take the CO-26 E exit- EXIT 259- toward RED ROCKS PARK. Turn left onto CO-26, go under the I-70 overpass. The parking lot for Matthews Winters is 0.1 miles down the road on your righ, just south of I-70. See map at bottom of this list.

Matthews/Winters Park and the adjacent Hogback provide a haven for wildlife viewing and hiking. This is also a popular mountain biking destination. Please be aware that parking is limited particularly during the late afternoon/early evening hours and weekends. Trail connections through Denver's Red Rocks Park extend the park south to Bear Creek Canyon.
You may access the Hogback and Dakota Ridge Trail from the parking area.
