This park has a large area at the top of a hill which is an off-leash hiking area for people with dogs. It also provides excellent views and the mountains and the city.

Great open area with amazing views. At the south end of the park are a well over a mile of posted "leash free" dog walking trails. The people and dogs are generally very friendly. It's a great resource.

It also serves to visually and physically split Old Colorado Springs from the newer and more populated sections to the East. Nothing to see out there but shopping malls and rows and... More

This is a nice park to find a trail somewhere and head out- though I did get lost once (but found the road back easily enough). The best thing is to go to the top, park, check out the great overview and do some trails from there. Take your camera and enjoy the views of the city and then, as... More
