Established as a trading post in 1836 by Lieutenant Lancaster Lupton, the City of Fort Lupton has been a foundation of the Colorado Front Range for nearly 200 years. Anchored along the South Platte River with a stunning panoramic view of the Rocky Mountains in Eastern Colorado, Fort Lupton has grown from its humble beginnings to an idyllic Colorado community. The City honors its history and values through events like the annual Trapper Days and Independence Day Celebrations that bring the community together. Multiple parks, an exquisite golf course and first-rate recreation center are a sampling of the modern amenities and recreational opportunities. Fort Lupton is within a short drive of all that Colorado has to offer, including easy access to the State Capital, Denver International Airport, top tier ski resorts and many national parks, such as Rocky Mountain National Park.
