One of the most overlooked attractions in Colorado Springs is North Cheyenne Canon Park. This is where I spend a lot of my time hiking and unwinding after work and is only 3 minutes from my house. North Cheyenne Canon Park is Colorado Springs' oldest and most cherished Regional Park. The main entrance is located one-half mile below Seven Falls. Follow the North Cheyenne Creek, which parallels the paved three-mile drive to Helen Hunt Falls where you will find spectacular rock formations; a rich variety of plants, animals and Helen Hunt Falls.

The Park offers a network of hiking, biking and equestrian trails as well as picnic sites. The 1600-acre park includes the most diverse landscape in any Colorado Springs park, provides many hiking trails and water falls that include views of the spectacular Seven Falls and South Cheyenne Canon on Mt. Cutler trail, access to Gold Camp Road and two free Visitor Centers with educational programs for adults and children. Photo taken from Stratton Open Space by Gibson Hazard.
