Garden of the Gods park is a public park which offers a variety of trails to explore.  The nature center has great educational exhibits, offers a great view of the park, and has a kid friendly cafe.  The Siamese Twins trail is a .5 mile loop trail that offers an amazing view of Pikes Peak and unique rock formations.  At the midpoint there is a ‘window’ through the rocks that you can sit and take a picture that will have Pikes Peak in the background. There is a gradual incline and decline. This trail is not stroller friendly and has stairs. It is a perfect hike for toddlers.  There are connecting trails if you wish to make your hike longer.  It is not wheelchair friendly.  Dogs are allowed, but must be leashed.

I have lived in Colorado Springs since 2010, and really enjoy hiking! I became active with Hike it Baby in April 2016 and fell in love with carrier hikes. I became a branch ambassador for the Colorado Springs branch in February 2018.  I now help with the national team with localized support and the LEAP program.  I currently host and enjoy toddler led and stroller hikes.
