Open Space & Natural Resources

More than 65,000 acres of protected open space land enhances the quality of life in Douglas County.

Douglas County Division of Open Space and Natural Resources seeks to enhance the quality of life for residents by protecting wildlife habitats and natural resources in our public access properties, trails (don’t forget trail etiquette), historic sites and scenic views.   All while preserving Douglas County’s rural heritage while providing a wide range of compatible outdoor recreation and educational opportunities.  We also offer special event / special use permits for our open space properties.

The Douglas County Open Space Program was created in 1994 with the passage of a sixth-of-a-cent sales and use tax that continues today. Learn more about the Parks, Trails, Historic Resources and Open Space Fund.
