What a gorgeous, incredibly scenic place. One of the largest concentrations of hoodoos that we ve seen. The loop trail is very good, somewhat strenuous, and easy to follow. You can wander around at the top to explore the formations and check out the overlooks. Not very crowded when we were there. Parking lot was good.

Much quieter than the main attraction site. Parking was right, but trail was quiet before noon. Many places to climb and explore.

I could spend all day out here. So much to do and a quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle. Bring your bug spray and wear some tough shoes and have a good time!

The parking lot gets really crowded on weekends, but the loop trail to the south is perfect for half a day of exploring caves and cliffs.

The Garden of the Gods is a beautiful place. Anytime you have a couple hours or a couple of days to just get lost in the beauty of the Wilderness this is a good place to go. I plan on going back soon.

Absolutely beautiful all times of the year, but my personal favorite would be the middle of fall.
