My horse, Toby, was a gem. The landscape was beautiful, with full creeks, dramatic peaks, and clear vistas. Ann Marie's authenticity belies her deep connections to the land and its people. We would fully endorse Sable Mountain Outfitters as the best outfitters in Meeker. Thanks, Ann Marie, for a ride we'll never forget!

It's a nice rest stop. Shady, lots of parking. There's a boat dock and we saw some rafters. A nice path to walk and explore. You can walk down to the river's edge and watch the rafters coming downriver. Nice restroom with soda and snack machines in the building. Picnic tables to sit and enjoy a meal at. It was pretty shady so we weren't burning from the sun. I recommend stopping here if you're passing through to rest at. There are also lots of activities you could do here. Biking, hiking and rafting.

The trail is very clear, it's basically stairs going up for the 1.3 miles - 8 bridges total. I wouldn't go on a weekend or holiday or really any time other than off times - because even then, it was busy and hard to navigate around groups with such a narrow trail. There is a sprouting rock trail to the left of the hanging lake with a small trail leading to another waterfall coming straight out of the mountain. Overall, you can see why it is so busy - oh also, you have to have a parking reservation so make sure you sign up ahead

If you are able to take your time and take this hike a slower pace you should. We rushed up the incline, which doesn't feel like one on the legs but breathing sure was tough. We were trying to beat the storm rolling in. They told us at the gate that if a the storm rolled in we would hear a lot horn and everyone is required to evacuate so, whether you make it or not you have to leave. Since this is now a timed pass to hike this trail we didn't want to have to come back because of a storm. So, we rushed up and in the last 5 min it es you climb some questionable steps with a handrail but any one could slip through that rail system not just small children. If you get anxiety at heights this may not be for you. I don't love heights but I was able to do this one by just focusing on one foot I front of the other. It was unlike any Lake I have ever seen. The water is a beautiful aqua green which is naturally occurring. You won't regret it, so book that pass now!

Note: I detracted one star because all the picnic tables for day visitors have been removed to discourage that activity. The only tables in the park are for the camp sites. We pulled into an empty site, since we did not see tables elsewhere, to have a quick lunch. We got a talking to from one of the park employees that it was not permitted. We were nearly done with lunch so we finished quickly and removed ourselves, making sure the area was as we found it. We then parked up at the trailhead parking. It is a pleasant walk to the base of the falls. Then we headed up the stairs that take you behind the falls as well as to some caves. My husband and his brother did the hike up and around to the top. My sister-in-law and I found a nice shaded bench to enjoy the views while we waited for them to return. It was an overall good experience. I would go back.

Right from the moment we pulled into the parking lot, the sound of rushing water filled the air,…read moreand it didn't take long to find out why. The centerpiece of the park is this stunning trio of waterfalls--three streams of water pouring side by side over bright limestone cliffs, surrounded by the kind of lush greenery that feels almost tropical. It was like walking into a Colorado rainforest. Mist from the falls cooled the air, and everything around them felt alive--ferns, moss, chirping birds, and the occasional chipmunk darting across the path. The trails were surprisingly well maintained and easy to navigate. We started with the paved path that led right up to the base of the falls--perfect for just soaking in the view, and even wheelchair accessible. Then we took the Coyote Trail, which loops up around and behind the falls. That's where things got even more fun. The trail winds past a handful of small limestone caves, some of which you can crawl into and explore. One of them opened up into a surprisingly big cavern--we hadn't brought flashlights, but our phones did the trick, and the kids loved it. It felt like discovering secret chambers in a fantasy story. When we made it to the top of the falls, the view was totally worth the mild climb. You could look down and see all three cascades in full, framed by trees and cliffs. And with the mist rising in the sunlight, it felt absolutely magical--like something out of a painting. What I loved most was how much this park offered in such a compact space. Waterfalls, caves, trails, wildlife, creeks, picnic spots--everything felt close and accessible, but never crowded or rushed. It was peaceful, beautiful, and so well kept. Honestly, it's one of the best hidden gems I've stumbled upon in Colorado.

There is no NO phone service, and please if coming in at night keep flashlights down to the ground as clothing is optional.

It's so well maintained I felt like I should tip someone just for letting me stroll on it. You've got peaceful river vibes the whole way, which makes you feel like a woodland creature out for a wellness walk. Ducks? Check. Gentle breeze? Check. A mild existential breakthrough by mile two? Double check. Whether you're power walking, zombie-limping through a "light jog," or just trying to trick your kids into exercise--this path delivers. 10/10 would walk again (preferably with snacks).
