Devil's Playground
Hiking area
👍👍 What a great experience to drive up Pikes Peak. Unfortunately the last part of the road was closed due to ice on the road, bad luck. However, it was great to get as far as I got. The view was fantastic. It was also rather cold (-3 deg C) and windy, however that was not a big surprise on almost 4000...

Cripple Creek Heritage Center
Heritage museum
👍👍 Great experience! Definitely should come out and check it out for yourself. Lots of little interactive stuff inside and definitely come to see this big old hole in the ground where they're carving up the side of this mountain! To minor it.

Crags Trail Head
Hiking area
👍👍 Absolutely beautiful hike! My first time on this trail and a few notes:
The drive to the parking lot is a little sketchy, with it being gravel and narrow, so watch out for oncoming traffic.
Parking lot was full when we got there around noon, but managed to find a spot.
Nice clean bathrooms at the st...

👍 Required a $7 state park entrance fee, but did have some picnic tables and vault toilets. Lake is small, but the walking path loop around the lake is pretty neat.

Lovell Gulch Trailhead
Hiking area
👍👍 Good trail with plenty of parking. It’s a fairly easy hike that would be good for kids or pets.
There’s a great view of Pikes Peak from the parking lot actually. The initial climb isn’t very scenic since you’re hiking behind the city’s utilities/road department equipment yard and some outlying home...

North Catamount Reservoir
Lake
👍👍 Love this lake and its sister - we kayak across to avoid the main shore and always find an open cove. Not many hike all the way around so many spots have little to no signs of people. Give yourself at least 30 minutes to get back anytime after 3 as winds tend to pick up and depending on ur type of h...
