The town of Limon was an Eastern Colorado work camp in 1888 when the railroad was being built from Kansas to Colorado Springs. Located 80 miles from Denver and 70 miles from Colorado Springs, Limon serves as a gateway to the two cities and the Pikes Peak region. As the intersection site of many major roads and Interstate 70, it became known as the Hub City of Eastern Colorado.

The Lincoln County area, a center of cattle and sheep raising offers wide open spaces where you can catch a glimpse of the abundant wildlife. Here deer, antelope, coyotes and a variety of birds are 'at home on the range.' The Big Sandy River has opportunities for fishing, wildlife spotting and hiking.

Visitors to Limon may want to see the Limon Heritage Museum and Railroad Park, Limon Wetlands or attend the Limon Western Festival Prairie Ride and Parade and the Colorado Championship Ranch Rodeo.
