Top Rated Attractions in Glenwood Springs

Search Radius (Miles)
Hanging Lake

One of the most scenic lakes one can come across, Hanging Lake beckons visitors with its stunning charm. Accessible through a picturesque hiking trail, the emerald-colored lake is fed by waterfalls that add to its otherworldly charm. The scenic trail winds along 1.2 miles (1.93 kilometers) to reach the serene oasis, which is now a National Natural Landmark. While the hike could get slightly strenuous, the sight of the lake is worth all the effort. Swimming or fishing is not permitted at the lake due to its chemical composition.

Roaring Fork River

Running right through the heart of Glenwood Springs is the Roaring Fork River. This long, serpentine river is ideal for kayaking, fishing and other similar activities. A hiking trail along the river also provides visitors with an interesting way to enjoy its beauty.

Glenwood Canyon

For those looking for some outdoor adventure, there is no better place than Glenwood Canyon. This massive canyon was formed by the mighty Colorado river and is ideal for kayaking, fishing, boating, other water sports, hiking, biking, picnics and so much more. Natural beauty at its prime, it is also an affordable way to spend time in the city.

White River National Forest

Deep-set in the wild lap of the Rockies, White River National Forest unfurls across the Colorado landscape to reveal jaw-dropping views and soul-stirring experiences. From amber-torched slopes overrun with unfettered grasslands, to towering sentinels like the Maroon Bells that watch over the park, this forest features an array of diverse landscapes. As many as ten peaks jut above the pristine terrain, while eight wilderness areas lay scattered across its seemingly boundless ambit. Within the forest's 2,285,970 acres (9,25,099 hectares), major ski-resorts, including Breckenridge and Copper Mountain appeal to a stripe of avid adventurers.

Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park

If you grow weary of climbing mountains, this attraction allows you to mole inside one instead. Originally deemed as the "Eighth Wonder of the World," the caverns, 45 miles (72 kilometers) away from Aspen, shut down during World War I and did not regain attraction status until the 1980s. The guided Family Tour is a great way to get awed by stalagmites and stalactites and lasts about two hours. The adventurous can opt for the guided Wild Tour, which explores many of the cave's undeveloped chambers. Advanced reservations are required for the Wild Tour and are restricted to kids over 13.

Cooper Corner Gallery

In order to promote local artists and their works, the Cooper Corner Gallery most of their pieces in their gallery. From thought provoking paintings to masterful sculptures, you can see and buy it all under one roof. The gallery also regularly hosts meet and greet sessions with the artists to bring more attention to them.
