Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Garden of the Gods is a public park in Colorado Springs which was established in 1909 and was designated a National Natural Landmark in 1971. The park comprises 1,367 acres and was first called the Red Rock Corral. You’ll be able to see some impressive rock formations as you explore the park - formations that are believed to have been created millions of years ago during a geological upheaval along a natural fault line. The rocks can be seen in all shapes and sizes, with one of the most prominent formations being the Lyons Formation. Native American people resided on the land around 250 BC and there are several petroglyphs around the park which tell the story of the creation of the formations, supposedly carved by Utes.
