Welcome to Greeley!

Situated in Weld County, Colorado, Greeley was originally organized and settled as a Utopian community by a newspaper reporter from New York City. The township was later named in honor of Horace Greeley, the editor of that same newspaper. A location close to the convergence of the Cache la Poudre and South Platte Rivers made Greeley one of the most important points in the late 1800s for western immigration on the Overland Trail. Today the rivers provide an excellent opportunity for scenic driving along Highway 14, between the towns of Fort Collins and Walden, as well as recreational activities, from fishing and camping to whitewater rafting. Greeley’s rich cultural background inspires many events and festivals, such as the second annual Greeley Blues Festival and, for five days each spring in May, Cinco de Mayo/Semana Latina—a Mexican festival that lures thousands of people to Island Grove Regional Park for fun, fare and song.
