Fremont County

Our Community:

We are located in beautiful, central Wyoming. Riverton is surrounded by many, many outdoor year-round activities. We have easy access to several mountain ranges, bodies of water and sand dunes, for all kinds of recreational opportunities. You can be in the mountains or at one of several lakes in about 30 minutes. Central Wyoming College is an excellent opportunity for post-secondary continuing education opportunities. Riverton is adjacent to the Wind River Indian Reservation, providing access to activities rich in cultural heritage and beauty. This is a good place to be!
