Great place to spend a day!

by skweelz1

What a fun place to go for an easy hike with most trails that are paved. The beautiful scenery will mesmerize you while explore.

• Pros: Great day getaway
• Cons: Some trails and formations are very crowded on the weekend

These giant, red rock formations are truly heavenly.

In Short
Beautifully framed against the backdrop of the snowy Rockies, the Garden of the Gods formations dwarf human visitors. Paved pathways and well-maintained dirt trails meander through the towering rocks. Guests can stop at the visitor center to watch a short video on how the sandstone formations formed. Free nature walks are offered daily at 10am and 2pm, and you can go rock climbing as long as you register at the visitor center.

my favorite place

by magicfun

I live only a few miles from Garden of the gods and have been there many times. I never get tired of it. It is a very peaceful place to go and forget the pressures of the day. It is my favorite place to visit in Colorado Springs. It is especially beautiful at sunrise.

• Pros: inexpensive, good parking
• Cons: crowded

Got to go

by DWaller

The park is a wonderfully scenic and safe place for the whole family. There are trails for everyone, even grandma. Be sure to stop by the 100-yr-old Trading Post on the way out. The SW Art Gallery is the best in the state.

• Pros: Free, well maintained, scenic

The Coolest Place On Earth

by codykds77

The Garden of the God has everything that you would want places to hike, bike, horseback riding, & rockclimb (if you have the right things to do it) most of the hiking paths are paved but there are a few that are not. It is just really pretty there.

• Pros: Free, Good hiking places, Good parking
