Red Rock Canyon

3-5-05_RRC_OS_SM_WEB__Winter__P4110324_copy_RRC_Adj_edited-2Red Red Rock Canyon is one of the region's newest and most popular open spaces. Opened in October of 2004, this former quarry was nearly developed into a golf course and townhouses. Thanks to committed residents from both Colorado Springs and Manitou Springs as well as financial support from TOPS and GOCO, all 787 acres of Red Rock Canyon will remain open to hikers, runners, cyclists, equestrians and all who enjoy meandering trails, fascinating rock formations and solitude. Trails from Red Rock can take the ambitious hiker or cyclist to Section 16, Bear Creek Regional Park and even North Cheyenne Canyon.

Friends Group(s): "Friends of Red Rock Canyon" http//:www.redrockcanyonopenspace.org
You can find a map of the trails at http//:www.springsgov.com/page.aspx?navid=2090
