Land for Sale in Cañon City, Colorado
Tallahassee Trl, Cañon City, CO 81212
This 120-acre contiguous property offers a secluded and largely untouched stretch of Colorado mountain land in Fremont County, located near the intersection of County Road 2 and County Road 21. Held by the same ownership for nearly 40 years and rarely used, the property remains completely unimproved, providing a blank canvas for recreational use, hunting, or a future mountain build.
The land features extensive tree cover, including ponderosa pine, aspen, pinon pine, and mixed native vegetation that provides both visual diversity and quality wildlife habitat. Topography across the property is highly varied, with elevated ridgelines, rocky peaks, natural canyons, and scattered rock outcroppings that create numerous vantage points and sheltered areas. From higher elevations, long-range mountain views extend west toward the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, with additional views of Waugh Mountain and even Pikes Peak visible on clear days.

Access is a strong feature of this tract. Tallahassee Trail, also known locally as Ranch Road, runs along the southeastern side of the property and provides solid vehicle access as well as nearby power availability. Additional walk-in access is available through Tallahassee Road State Land Trust off of County Road 2. These multiple access points add flexibility for recreational use, property management, or future development planning.
The property adjoins a small parcel of Bureau of Land Management ground, and there is extensive additional BLM land in the surrounding area. State land nearby allows for public access and hunting, subject to current regulations, which should always be verified by the buyer. The proximity to public land significantly expands recreational opportunities beyond the property boundaries.
Wildlife is abundant and consistent with the area. The property lies within Colorado Game Management Unit 58 and supports populations of deer, elk, bear, turkey, and other native species. The combination of tree cover, terrain variation, and limited human disturbance contributes to strong habitat conditions. This makes the property suitable for both personal hunting use and general wildlife enjoyment throughout the year.
Water in the area is typically accessed via private wells, with neighboring properties reporting depths ranging from approximately 300 to 575 feet. While no well is currently installed on the property, this information provides helpful context for future planning. There are no homeowners associations, covenants, or restrictions in place, offering flexibility for how the land may be used, subject to county and state regulations.
A neighboring and adjoining 40-acre parcel with an existing home is also available for purchase, presenting an opportunity to expand acreage or secure a residence adjacent to this tract. Buyers interested in a larger holding or a combination of improved and unimproved land may find this particularly appealing.
Despite its secluded feel, the property is within approximately 30 minutes of Canon City, where full amenities are available, including grocery stores, medical facilities, dining, and other services. The surrounding region is known for its outdoor recreation and history, with nearby attractions such as the Royal Gorge, Arkansas River rafting, public trail systems, and long-standing ranching and mining heritage that helped shape Fremont County.
This property offers a combination of privacy, access, wildlife, and scenic terrain that is increasingly difficult to find in a single tract. Boundary lines shown in marketing materials are approximate and should be verified by survey.
