Cheyenne Mountain State Park719-576-2016Situated just north of Colorado Springs, the 1680-acre park lies along the eastern flank of Cheyenne Mountain, a stunning transition from plains to peaks. The first State Park in El Paso County, Cheyenne Mountain opened in 2006 and offers superior recreational opportunities and 20 miles of beautiful, natural surface trails (no pets, please) for hiking and biking. The recent acquisition of the top of Cheyenne Mountain will only add more remarkable terrain for the adventurous to explore in the future! The mountain splendor of Golden Gate Canyon's wildflower meadows, glorious autumn colors and spectacular view from the famous Panorama Point of over 100 miles of the Continental Divide make the park ideal for sightseers and photographers. Miles upon miles of mountain trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding and 156 campsites make Golden Gate Canyon accessible to everyone. Golden Gate Canyon is a great place for young anglers and fall color viewing. Breathtaking views abound at the Park with wildlife and bird watching opportunities . . . truly a destination for nature lovers and photographers. Visitors may also take part in one of our many environmental education programs, or naturalist led hikes. Geocaching on site! 51 full-service campsites, 10 walk-in tent sites, and a camper service building, 42 picnic sites, and a group picnic area with covered pavilion for up to 200 people (call for details).
