Among RidgeGate’s cultural facilities is the 38-acre historic Schweiger Ranch, located just east of the RidgeGate Parkway and I-25 interchange. The historic restoration of the ranch and its buildings, led by the nonprofit Schweiger Ranch Foundation, gives us an important glimpse into the settlers’ lives in the late 1800s. Today, Schweiger Ranch is open to the public for self-guided visits and free guided tours, storytelling campfires and nature hikes are also offered. All events are free to the public.
Open Days for Self-Guided Tours:
Embark on a self-guided tour of Schweiger Ranch, a place where the past and the present intertwine. Wander through the historic house, outbuildings, and expansive grounds to view the artifacts unearthed during the restoration process. As you wander, be sure to stop by and visit our beloved animals, adding a touch of warmth to your visit. Whether you’re a history enthusiast, nature lover, or simply seeking a peaceful retreat, Schweiger Ranch promises an unforgettable journey through time and tranquility.
