Castle-Rock
is located midway between Denver and Colorado Springs, nestled in the heart of Crowfoot Valley, surrounded by the stunning beauty of the Rocky Mountains. Named for the prominent rock formation that overlooks the town, Castle Rock was first settled in the 1870s and became a center for rhyolite mining and an important stop for the railroads. Today it's home to around 35,000 residents who enjoy the small town charm combined with big city amenities. Castle Rock offers 400 acres of parks, a community recreation center and a municipal golf course. Several special events are held in this town throughout the year. Every Saturday, from July through October, a Farmer's Market is held on historic Wilcox Square, and in August, come join the fun at the Old Fashioned County Fair and BBQ - a tradition for over 65 years. Another August tradition is the International PGA Golf Tournament at Castle Pines, a prestigious event that draws tens of thousands of spectators each year. The highlight of summer, however, is the Castle Rock WineFest, where over 20 Colorado wineries gather to present their finest wines in a gorgeous outdoor setting in The Meadows at Castle Rock. Along with wine tasting, visitors can enjoy delicious fare from local chefs, culinary demonstrations, arts and crafts, live music and a grape stomp.

Castle Rock Weather & Climate
|
|
|
|
North-central has a semi-arid, continental climate with cold, dry winters and hot, wet summers. On average, this area receives just over 17 inches of rain per year. Snowfall averages 60 inches per year, but many times the snow quickly melts during the daylight hours. Temperatures in winter are cold, but usually not bitterly cold. As with most of Colorado, the climate is termed as highland or mountain climate. Humidity is normally quite low, which means it feels cool, even on hot days. Warm, moist air from the south most frequently moves into the area during spring, causing thunderstorms. Frequent showers and thunderstorms continue well into summer. There may also be hot, dry spells in summer.
