Garden of the Gods is a public park located
in Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA. It contains numerous trails for
hiking, walking, mountain biking and horseback riding. One of the
most popular trails, named Perkins, has been paved in an effort to
combat the erosion of the park's central garden caused by its
numerous visitors. Visitors receive frequent reminders to watch out
for rattlesnakes in the hot days of summer. Because of the unusual and steep rock formations in the park, it is an attractive goal for rock climbers. Rock climbing is permitted, with annual permit obtained at the Garden of the Gods Visitor and Nature Center. The only requirements are reading the rules, proper equipment, climbing with a "buddy", and staying on established climbing routes. Due to the often unstable conditions of the sandstone—particularly after much precipitation—several fatalities have occurred over the years. This is a very popular bicycle-riding area because of the scenic views, safe one-way recently-paved roads, and healthy clean air. (WikiPedia) |
