Garden of the Gods Park — main reason many guests visit

Garden of the Gods Park is a National Natural Landmark known for towering red sandstone formations such as Balanced Rock and Cathedral Spires. The resort is roughly one mile from the park, making it one of the most convenient bases for a visit.

You can reach trailheads and the Garden of the Gods Visitor & Nature Center by a short drive or the park’s seasonal free shuttle (operates roughly late May through Labor Day). The resort does not run a regular shuttle to the park, though front-desk staff can advise or arrange rides.

  • Park highlights: Balanced Rock, Cathedral Spires, Steamboat Rock
  • Park shuttle: free, seasonal loop service 9:00 am–5:00 pm (visitor-center/central-garden/overflow parking)
  • Best ways to get there: short drive, rideshare, or walk depending on your mobility and route

Nearby historic and family attractions

Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site sits essentially adjacent to the resort; its properties and demonstrations are within easy walking distance for guests. Glen Eyrie Castle, Old Colorado City and downtown Manitou Springs are short drives and common sightseeing stops.

Other family-friendly sites listed near the resort include the Space Foundation Discovery Center and Bancroft Park. If you plan multiple stops, having a car or using rideshare services is the most practical way to move between these locations.

  • Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site — adjacent (about 0.36 km / 1,200 ft)

Weather varies by season: summer days are warm with afternoon thunderstorms possible; winter can be cold with snow. Bring layered clothing, sturdy shoes for park trails, and sun protection for high-altitude sun exposure.

  • Check-in and check-out: standard check-in begins at 4:00 pm and check-out is by 12:00 pm (noon); the front desk is 24 hours
  • Pools: some are seasonal; Infinity Pool has a 21+ policy when other pools are open
