Land for Sale in Segundo, Colorado

Escape to the quiet beauty of southern Colorado with this exceptional 75.48-acre property in beautiful and secluded San Juan Mesa Ranch, located just north of Segundo and only a short drive west of Trinidad. Offering outstanding privacy, excellent access, and breathtaking mountain scenery, this property is an ideal destination for recreation, camping, hunting, or building your future mountain getaway.

From the moment you enter through the gated ranch entrance, you'll appreciate the peaceful setting and well-maintained road system leading directly to the property. A roughed-in driveway and entrance gate provide immediate access, while an elevated building or camping site on the western side of the property captures sweeping panoramic views that stretch across the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Fisher's Peak, and the iconic Spanish Peaks.
