Garden Of The Gods

The Garden of the Gods is a great place to spend the entire day. The rock formations look so different at different times of the day. Most of the park is a walking experience. Wear comfy shoes! You can also picnic here, so its a great place to plan a whole day.

However, I was disappointed that they’ve created a paved trail that encompasses the red rock and destroyed some of the natural landscape.

Amazing!! been here about 6 times and i’m still crazy about it.
great place for black and white photos ;-)

I recommend this because you don’t see these kind of rock formations everyday unless your from the area. I lived in the springs for the bit and I din’t realize how great I had it till I moved. Someday we won’t have these wonders to look at if we keep goin at the pace we are.

Don’t just drive through. Spend some time there so you can truly appreciate the beauty of the Garden of the Gods. If you have been there before and plan to go again, I recommend that you take a trail ride. It will give you a completely different perspective of those incredible rock formations. It’s much more peaceful that way as well – you rarely see or hear the traffic! We always end our trip by staying to watch the sunset. It’s inspiring and incredibly beautiful. On our last visit we saw black bears in addition to the usual deer, chipmunks, magpies, etc.

Gorgeous! I even got to watch the mountain climbers summit those massive red things! And I love the way the surrounding houses look nestled in those red rocks (;

God’s masterpiece at its finest. :) a must see in Colorado. :)

It’s not bad. But not much to see here. I think looking a the giant rocks up close and personal makes you realize how small you are in this world.

I went there with my uncle when I was 20…. took me another 17 years before I met up with him again and we remininsed about the trip…... one of my favourite memories…

Went here when I was young and have never forgotten it. It’s gorgeous!
