The park is absolutely beautiful! We spent almost 2 hours walking around the park, admiring the rock formations and enjoying the amazing views. Another great thing about this attraction - it's absolutely free! We saw some rock climbers there as well. We also visited the Garden of the Gods trading post. There were some pretty unique items there - but... more

We had only three days in the area and we went here twice. We are frugal and like free things to do. This is a good deal! they could charge for this and it would be worth it . Just driving around was pretty you don't even have to leave your car if you didn't feel like it. more

As a resident of Colorado Springs we are spoiled to see it everyday but if you are here as a tourist DON'T miss Garden of the Gods. I would recommend going about an hour before suset and watch the sunset behind the peak and the red rocks of the Garden change. It's a beautiful place that can get very busy,... more

The balanced rock, kissing camels, the spires.... There is so much to see here you will want to come back. I just went for the third time and I'm anxious to go again someday. It's free and you can drive through, walk along easy paths (handicap accessible), take easy to moderate hiking trails, and bike if you like. If you're... more

We live in Denver and make the short trip down to Garden of the Gods at least once a month. It is an easy drive when you just want to get away for the day. My kids love coming here and always ask when we are coming again! The museum is interactive and fun- it takes about 1/2 an hour... more

The rock formations were beautiful and it was very pleasant to walk around there. It it open until 11 pm so it was convenient to visit in the late afternoon/evening when other attractions are closing. We found the maps a bit confusing. more

Being from the mostly flat ground of IL. , my family enjoyed seeing all the rock formations. There was rock climbers while we was there and they were neat to watch. I can't believe that somebody out there hasn't decided they need to charge money to get in and see this. With a family of five, this free of charge... more

This is definitely a must see if you are anywhere around Colorado Springs. We went in the afternoon and had a great time. We had a treat of seeing a few rock climbers tackling one of the rock formations, so it was fun to watch them do their thing. While we did a walking tour on the paved trail during... more

i have been to Garden of the Gods twice. The rock formations are very cool and it is a nice relaxing activity that doesn't take up too much time if you are on a schedule, but you can take as long as you would like. My husband and I like to check out the rocks and then drive up this... more
