Beautiful area and one of my favorite local parks inside Colorado Springs. The area has magnificent views of the mountains and multiple trails of varying difficulty for hikers of all levels. I've been returning here at least once a month or so for the last couple...Read More

Very pretty, rocky hike with views on either side. Got the heart pumping! Back in December 2024 on a different trail, went down a couple of rocks from the top and accidentally got off path. Some tree-trimmers had a good laugh watching me come out...Read More

Very beautiful park with plenty of trails to hike/walk. Very dog friendly park with several parking and picnic areas throughout. Just a reminder of how beautiful Colorado can be even amongst the city.

Great place to get an awesome sunset photo… Would probably be great for sunrise too as it’s completely panoramic 360° views! Also a pretty decent amount of parking for free.

One of the most gorgeous parks in The Springs. The playground is nice, but the hiking trails are stunning. It’s a great place for the whole family to get out into nature without leaving the city. There are 25 miles of trails around the park....Read More

A very tranquil park. The thing I liked most about this park was the lack of people and the quietness. I did the Templeton trail which has a superb view of Pikes Peak, the incline and Garden of the Gods, all in one photo. For...Read More

Beautiful and impressive place for hiking. There are many trails to choose and the park is huge, so definitely everyone will find something fitting - easy, medium or a bit harder trail. Rock formations are not so big like in Garden of the Gods, but...Read More

This is an amazing park, the long off leash trail is beautiful and so much fun for the dogs and me as well. It feels like a trip to the forest just 10 minutes from home. It’s so well maintained, the park rangers are great.

I would say this is also a must visit in Colorado Springs. Visit the Grand View Overlook during sunset and I bet you will love it. The park itself has plenty of other trails that you can hike and they all look well maintained.

We had an incredible time at this location. There are pocket parks with trails located throughout but we most enjoyed the off leash dog park area, despite not having our dog with us. Every dog was on cloud nine, running around with tails wagging! The...Read More

The playground has a seesaw!!! My son loved it UNTIL he hit his 'walnuts'(his words not mine,lol). Sooo...it maybe wise to get on it with them to show the littles how to ride it right.The picnic area is very spacious. If you are wanting to throw a party there.....go for it!
