Things To Do
Hanging Lake Trailhead
Reservations required, but worth it! The 1.2 mile (1.9 km) trail is steep, rigorous and rocky but rewarding. This National Natural Landmark features awe-inspiring scenery and gentle waterfalls! The Hanging Lake trail is a backcountry hike. While you don’t need to be an expert hiker, please be advised that if you have physical limitations, you will find the hike challenging.
Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park
Western-themed adventure park where a scenic Gondola Ride to the top of Iron Mountain delivers you to incredible views, amusement rides, cave tours, and much more (such as laser tag!).
Adventure Outdoors - Glenwood Adventure Company
Rafting, Biking, Horseback, ATV tours, and more! Both Audrey and Sam have guided for this outfitter in past years.
Red Hill Trailhead
This is our favorite Carbondale Hike and local favorite. There are several options to the top, but a short walk up provides a rewarding view of Carbondale, Mt. Sopris and the Roaring Fork Valley. Be warned, there is not one flat section of this trail!
True Nature Rock Garden
The Zen Rock Garden is free and a wonderful place to visit and contemplate. There is a cafe, gem shop, yoga studio, and spa services also available. Nameste, Ommmmm.
Glenwood Hot Springs Pool
We love this place so much that we are hosting part of our wedding there, come join us on Sunday, June 21st at 10:30am for a Father's Day Brunch. See Events page for more details.
