Most commercialized of all our Colorado experiences. Long shuttle ride to the site, close to a mile walk uphill to the falls, and then the stairs. Adding in the amount of hydration you need to adjust to Colorado elevation, you should carry in a lot of water. If you need to buy it at the park, distilled water graciously served at $5 per bottle.

A beautiful spot. We’ll worth a visit by anyone. It has been fully developed since it the last time I was there, over 25 years ago. You have to appreciate the hard work put into the place over the years. Mother Nature is awe inspiring. I love the mountains!!!

Seven Falls was one of our favorite destinations in Colorado Springs. I read the history and understand the problems incurred by flooding and the takeover by the Broadmoor. We enjoyed the new experience very much and were so glad to see it lit up at night! However, it was totally ruined by the early closing of the gift shop, the ice cream shop and the extremely long wait for the shuttle. Some customer service problems to resolve.

In search of adventure, we found this park in our Google results. My girl was looking for something to test our skill today, so I quickly grabbed online tickets and asked Waze to help us get there. Pro-tip! Check on parking first! This weekend, it was relocated to a local high school with shuttle busses to get you back and forth. We saw others struggling to figure that out. Oh, and the bus driver may not actually slow down for speed bumps so try not to sit in back. Once in the park, the walk is paved, flat, and scenic. You can pay $4 for a tram ride up, but we chose to walk it. We were pleasantly surprised to learn of the elevator to the first observation area. A nice break and AC too! Then we headed to the scary steps leading up the rest of the way. We did not pass that test... way too scary. We turned around halfway and made our way back to solid land and were glad to be off those steps. Good luck.

If you choose to go do this I would definitely recommend doing it when it is cooler. Riding a shuttle bus down it was very hot and then walking up to the falls it was hot as well. I feel like a lot is outdated and definitely room for improvement.

Seven Falls is always a fun spot to visit....always busy, visit EARLY! TIP: get a waffle ice cream dish on your way back down, they are delicious and enough to share!!

The views here are gorgeous but you need to plan ahead for parking. We would recommend taking the shuttle bus if you can. Parking is sparse so plan on extra time in your trip for parking/shuttle/etc. But the views and scenery are awesome and worth the trip.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Seven Falls. Online reservations were easy to make. The shuttle pick up at the Norris Penrose Event Center was easy with free parking. 10 minutes later we arrived at the falls entrance. The bottom of the falls is .8 mile from the shuttle drop off. You can walk on a beautiful paved road for 20 minutes as we did or get a tram for $4. The tram is free for 60 years and older. The walk to the bottom of the falls was a highlight. You're surrounded by the tall cliffs, walking by a stream with lovely flower baskets along the way. You can view the falls from below or walk up 224 stairs to the top. The stairs take you along the side of the falls and feel a bit exposed but are fun to do. My husband and I are active mid 60's, early 70's and had no problem doing the stairs. We took our time and used the railings. Another viewpoint can be accessed by either stairs or elevator. It was a bargain for $18 including the shuttle from the parking lot. Highly recommended.

This is a wonderful attraction! The manager, Wendi, makes sure that all guests are well taken care of! I left my bag in the Shuttle and she made sure that I got it. She even gave me some water while I waited. That is Excellent Customer Service! If you are staying at The Broadmoor, a shuttle conveniently takes you there and picks you up! I challenged myself to go up the 224 steps and am happy to say that I did it!

It was a great October Friday afternoon. Not too busy. Temp about 50. A little chilly to start the hike, dressed in layers and had gloves, and it was great! The shuttle from the parking lot was quick and easy. Once on site, the steady incline was an easy walk, or you can pay to ride a shuttle. The elevator up to the eagles nest area was a good way to the top, or take the stairs. The view was fabulous! Then we went up the falls side of the stairs. The falls were impressive! We also went around and continued up the 10 minute trail, and recommend going that route. The staff was nice. The park was clean. We spent more time there than I anticipated, 2.5 hours, and could have stayed longer. There is another trail to do that was 40 minutes.
