Seven different waterfalls cascade down the rock wall for 181 feet. At night, the falls are lit up and the water against the mountains is breathtaking.
There is a one mile drive through a narrow canyon. At its narrowest point, it is 42 feet across. The falls are best viewed from a platform called Eagle Nest. An elevator will take you up to the platform.
You will oooh and aaah at the natural beauty during the day. At night, the light adds to the beauty of the water and the mountains.
Take your camera and get as many shots as you can of the water against the mountain. Up at the top is an incredible view of the city.
To get there, take I-25 to Exit 141 and travel west on U.S. 24. Turn south on 21st Street. After about three miles, turn west on Cheyenne Blvd. and turn left again on S. Cheyenne Canyon Road.
Admission during the day is $9 for adults and $5.50 for children from the ages of 6 to 15. Nighttime admission is $10.50 for adults and $6.50 for children. It is free for children 5 and under. Hours vary.
