Great afternoon hike and wonderful trails! I would recommend this place for anyone looking for a leisurely hike that can be as short or long as you want. Dogs are welcome and it would be great for kids and strollers if you have real little ones.

Loved this hike! Red rocks were gorgeous and the lakes we passed were stunning! There are multiple paths you can take. Some are easier some are more advanced. I’m 24 weeks pregnant and didn’t have any troubles on the paths I took (mostly intermediate). I saw a couple of people with young baby’s even a stroller. Definitely recommend this trail!

The space is amazing, don't get me wrong. The issue I ran into was that along some of the trails, some folks still don't pick up after their dogs or themselves. A shame to see litter when this place is FILLED with so much history!! Some of the rocks in this park have fossils embedded within them! Not only that but you can see them on some of the higher up cliffs. I was here with a geology class so, I could go on but, I will just stop here and say that, the history here is quite amazing and Colorado is very unique for having these large sandstone structures jutting out of the ground.

This place is very cool! Trails are really short with beautiful views. There's also a great dog park area and multiple parking lots to park in, so easy place to go with a dog or family.

It connects to Intemann trail and on to Section 16. Or you can walk to Bear Creek Park. Follow Intemann to Barr trail or Ute Pass trail.

Very. Just make sure everyone stays on the trails because there is the chance snakes could be around

How is the trail when it has rained overnight???? Is it that crushed red gravel that absorbs water quickly - I mean the parts that are not sheer rocks?

karoline spengler-moore | Aug 19, 2018
Donna Anders Fahrenkrug | Aug 20, 2018

If the rain wasn't real heavy you'll get some little mud holes on the trail--depends on the trail you take. Still a good hike!!
