This place is a hidden gem, most likely the locals will recommend it. Next to the famous Garden of Gods, this place has similar rock formations, similar scenery but is way bigger and rocks are scattered over a large area. Unlike its popular neighbor, this place has way more tails, more trees and more fun to explore! It's a very good place to do hiking, wildness/nature exploring and rock formations sighting. You can easily spend hours and hours here. It's also not crowded, plenty of parking space. I really enjoyed hiking here and felt much better than GOG. Highly recommend. Note, it has two parking spaces and few entrances, and there is a trail map at the entrance. You better take a picture of it, otherwise it's easy to get lost inside there which is really quite big. Also, Google Map does work and has the trails showing up correctly in the map.

Beautiful place to walk in nature. Mostly flat some area is going up the hill, but pretty easy.

Just wonderful. My dogs and I thoroughly enjoyed our walk. It looked like the bikers were having a really nice ride too.

Bring water and good shoes. Trails are very clearly marked, easy it Navigate and also have some cool views of the mountains. Very quite considering it is so close to Colorado Springs. Will go back when we can!

Many trails to explore. Love to take my seven-year-old German Shepherd out for long hikes. Love the loop trails and scenic views. Pack a lunch for a picnic, bring water. Friendly people, bear proof garbage dumpsters for trash, outhouses. Bring your dog, but leave no trace.
