Situated in the heart of Colorado Springs, the Garden of the Gods has been a National Natural Landmark since 1971. The park offers more than 15 miles of hiking, cycling, and horseback riding trails, including a paved 1.5-mile trail that runs right through the center of the park. Other popular activities here include technical rock climbing, taking Segway or Jeep tours, and learning about the history of park through the many educational interactive exhibits that can be found in the visitor and nature center.

The park is open to visitors free of charge, and hours of operation vary depending on the season.
