The Kuiper Ranch

Situated outside of Walden, Colorado, the Kuiper Ranch is a 2,040 +/- deeded acre cattle ranch with productive meadows, historic improvements, and expansive views of the Rocky Mountains. The Kuiper Ranch has served as a balanced hay and cattle operation for many years producing, on average, 965 tons of mountain meadow hay from 778 irrigated acres. The meadows are irrigated by 86.7 CFS of water rights out of a system of ditches. The current landowners have utilized this property to graze 200 replacement heifers and 200 cow/calf pairs through the summer and 400-500 bred cows in the Fall.

The ranch is located in northwest Colorado in the Rocky Mountains and near the destination resort town of Steamboat Springs. The ranch is easily accessed via Colorado Highway 14 and is only an hour drive to the I-70 and I-25 corridors to Denver, Grand Junction, and Colorado Springs.

The improvements on the ranch have been well-maintained by the landowners and include a ranch home, historic barn, two shop buildings, a cabin, equipment shed and chicken coops. The property is accessed by a maintained, gravel county road located eight miles outside of Walden.

The ranch is surrounded by the Park Range, Medicine Bow Mountains, Rabbit Ears Pass and the Never Summer Mountains. In additional to moose, which can almost always be spotted in the area, elk, antelope, mule deer and migratory birds also frequent the property. Over 4.8 miles of Beaver Creek and one mile of the Roaring Fork meander through the meadows and both offer incredible fishing opportunities for Brown and Rainbow Trout.

The Kuiper Ranch is located approximately 8 miles southwest of Walden, Colorado in an area known as North Park, which is known as the Moose Viewing Capital of Colorado and moose can almost always be found along the miles of live water and willows on the ranch. The elk, antelope, mule deer, and exceptional fishing make this an incredible recreational resource as well as a balanced high-altitude cattle operation.

Whether you're drawn to its productive land for agricultural pursuits, captivated by its historic charm, or seeking an escape into nature's embrace, this pristine property offers a rare opportunity to experience the quintessential Colorado lifestyle.
