There are many ways to enjoy this valley which for you might include cattle drives, horseback riding, jeep tours, fishing, weddings, corporate team-building events, and hunting. Elk Glade is pleased to offer 2,000 acres of private land and 18,200 acres of leased lands.
Dawnielle and Jim were incredible guides! They taught us how to horseback ride in about 30 minutes and then we spent the morning on horseback doing a cattle drive in an amazing valley. Dawnielle cooked us a very nice lunch and then we were off again on the ATV's. My family and I loved the experience and it was so nice to spend the day enjoying being out in nature.

Hard to believe the open space here in Colorado Springs. Really good hike in town. The dog loved it and so did my husband. Beautiful place! We had a couple hours to hike and wish there was more time.Wear good foot gear as the trails can be steep and rocky. Certain to return again.

This is a great hiking trail!! The bridges are neat to see and they have numbers on them - except the first one, but I feel like we may have missed it. The views were beautiful, especially more towards the top! Be prepared, you are going up most of the way! It's not too difficult though. Once you get to the end, if you keep going on trail 622 (I think is what it was, you'll see signs) you get some STUNNING views of the valley. The aspen trees were GORGEOUS! I definitely recommend this hike! We stopped at the seventh bridge and had some snacks. The creek is shimmering and crisp! There were not many people here when we first got there, but it filled up quickly. The road leading up is very winding and the parking lot is gravel. If you have a vehicle that can handle off roading, there is a dirt mountain road you can take when leaving. Helen hunt falls is also right there and short!

Our son was so excited for us to go to Co again. He visited with his Scout Troop and told us we had to visit Gold Camp Road. It was awesome! It was rainy, but there was a beautiful rainbow, collections of hail in the trees, and so breathtaking sights. IT'S FREE!!! So fun for our kids, and the bonus was Helen Hunt Falls at the end! Take the hike up! It's worth it.

Really enjoyed this hike with the wife! It was about .9 mile to the top and another .9 mile down. Some very beautiful views along the way, especially looking out and seeing the beginning of the Great Plains! This would be a good hike for a beginner..... just be aware you will be going uphill as you are climbing a mountain. We did this when there was snow on the pathway, however, the snow had been smashed down due to it being heavily traveled.

This was a relatively easy hike. There are different trails to the top, I took a direct path from the parking lot. Once you get to the top, there are some great views of Colorado Springs and the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs baseball field. Must be in the front row!! I went up before Sunset and the views were great.
