About Cotopaxi

Tucked into the rugged Arkansas River canyon along Highway 50, Cotopaxi is a tiny mountain community set midway between Cañon City and Salida. Life here revolves around the outdoors, with renowned whitewater rafting right down the road and striking views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. It offers quiet, wide-open rural living within an easy drive of neighboring valley towns.
