It's up to a 7.2 mile trail out and back. You can go any distance you chose. I would rate this as a moderate trail. They allow camping after the first five miles of the trail. The end of the seven miles tops out at 10,000 feet. This trail is accessible from May through October. Good parking! We only went a mile up because of a thunderstorm rolling in. It was all along a river! Super beautiful !! I wish I had more time to hike the rest! Can't wait to come back and finish the trail!

I was part of a small group that did a full day trip with Glenwood Canyon Rafting last Saturday…read more Although I'd been canoeing in whitewater rivers many times I hadn't ever been rafting, not sure why it just hadn't worked out. After arriving in the morning we were outfitted with PFD's and helmets, then given a good talk about safety. Next we jumped on a bus headed up Glenwood Canyon to the Shoshone exit, about 10 miles up river from where we started. By far, the best part of the day was the first half hour or so. Lots of action right from the jump, and lots of me wandering why in the hell I hadn't done this before! There was a good deal of paddling to do in that first part, but it was way more fun than effort. Since we only had 5 in our group we were able to go out on the 14 footer instead of one of the bigger 16 foot rafts like the others on our bus. This let us go through a couple things they couldn't, and overall offered a little more exciting ride. After the first bit it was mostly a float trip with only a few spots for paddling. This allowed our great guide Otto to regale us with tales about the river, the area around it, and the people that work on it. Along with a few other choice stories that you'll have to get from him sometime, if you're lucky enough to get him as your guide too. After 10 miles on the river we arrived back to the boathouse and had lunch, which comes with the full day trip. It was WAY better than anyone in our group thought it would be. Burgers, hot dogs, chicken, and pulled pork with all the fixin's. Water and lemonade were included but if you wanted a pop or a beer they had them available for purchase inside. After lunch it was back on the river for a very chill 7 miles of mostly floating. The only wrinkle we hit was some fairly hard rainfall, which did soak us pretty good but didn't dampen our experience one bit.

We did the full day trip - lunch was awesome and even though I accidentally hijacked our guide's lemonade he let me back in the boat :) It wasn't too "rapid-y" when we went, but it was August and toward the end of the season. There were still some class IIIs that were pretty good. Everyone had a great time and our one first-time rafter felt super safe. I'd recommend these guys for sure.

We waited for 3 hours . Sitting in the parking lot!!! The only reason we waited was the family DROVE from Texas just for a trip to go white water rafting this weekend. This company works out of a spa. The receptionist was nice, but no help. She called the owner multiple times and he never answered. She said "if it was me I would have left hours ago and I'd be way more pissed and mean than y'all even are." Shes right. She wasn't even able to grant a refund or do anything for us. No one reached out, no one even reached out to say they were running late. No apology, no explanation. We're driving back having wasted an entire day plus says of driving on this. Beyond a scam.

Cannot say enough wonderful things about Canyon Bikes! I was…read morelooking to buy a bike in the "offseason" as I was going to be living in Carbondale for a few months and Canyon Bikes came to the rescue. Their staff and the owner were both incredibly helpful, responsive, and knowledgable about which of their bikes might work for me, and they set me up on a great Giant! The owner even called around to other shops to other bike shops to find the pedals I was looking for when they didn't have any left! Furthermore, the owner went above and beyond to drop off a part for the seatpost where I was staying in the valley as their shop was closed. I am floored by the generosity and helpfulness that was demonstrated!

We visited Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park on a Wednesday in September, and honestly, I think we…read moremay have discovered one of the best times of year to experience the park. The park's hours were 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and we arrived around 11. Since we were staying at Hotel Glenwood Springs, getting to the park couldn't have been easier. The gondola is conveniently located right near the hotel, so we simply walked over, hopped on, and enjoyed the ride up the mountain. When we reached the top, a thunderstorm moved through the area, so the rides temporarily shut down. Rather than letting that derail our day, we headed over to the Lookout Grille, which turned out to be a great choice.The restaurant has beautiful views and open-air seating, and it was a really nice place to wait out the storm while having lunch. Then we noticed that the timing worked perfectly for the King's Row Cave tour. If you visit Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park, do not skip the cave tour. The tours run at specific times during the day, so check the schedule when you arrive and plan around it. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and brought the history of the caves to life. You learn some really fascinating things about the geology and history of the caves and about how the entire park developed around them. The caves have a rich history going back to the turn of the 20th century, Understanding that history gave the park a completely different dimension for us, it isn't simply an amusement park sitting on top of a mountain. The caves are the heart of the place. By the time we finished the cave tour, the thunderstorm had passed and the rides were operating again. And this is where visiting on a September Wednesday really paid off. The park was not crowded. My kids were able to ride many of the attractions multiple times without standing in long lines. The cooler fall weather also made a huge difference. There are some steep grades and hills throughout the park, and walking around in the cooler temperatures was so much more comfortable than it would have been on a hot summer day. We didn't leave until the park closed at 5 p.m. Before heading down, we stopped in the gift shop, where we picked up a beautiful embroidered sweatshirt, a really nice mug, a couple of stickers, and some fudge. If you're someone who likes bringing home a souvenir from a trip, the gift shop is definitely worth stopping in. Then we hopped back on the gondola and rode down to our hotel. Don't Write Off Glenwood Caverns in the Fall One thing I would definitely tell people is don't assume Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park is only a summer attraction. In fact, after experiencing it in September, I'm convinced that fall may be one of the best times to go. The weather is cooler, the crowds are lighter, and you can actually enjoy the rides without spending your day standing in lines or getting overheated walking around the mountain. They also have seasonal events coming up, including Oktoberfest, and there are additional holiday events later in the year, so the park continues to offer things to do beyond the traditional summer season. And you don't necessarily have to buy an all-day amusement park pass to enjoy the experience. If you're visiting Glenwood Springs for the hot springs and don't want to spend the entire day at the park, you can purchase the gondola and cave experience separately. At the very least, take the gondola up and do the King's Row Cave tour. It's a completely different experience from the rides and, in my opinion, one of the things that makes Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park special. We purchased the full-day pass because we knew we wanted to spend the whole day there, and I'm really glad we did. We got the caves, the views, the rides, the food, the cooler fall weather, and almost no lines. Our September Wednesday at Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park ended up being one of the highlights of our Glenwood Springs trip and I would absolutely recommend adding it to your itinerary.

I can't rave the place enough honestly. You just have to see it for yourself ... definitely not a miss!
