My family was in Glenwood Springs for a mini-break from Denver. We had 1 full day to do something fun and we debated between the Glenwood Hot Springs pool or the Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park. We chose the park and had a blast. We were hesitant at first because of the cost. For our family of 4 (2 adults and... More

We had the BEST time at the caverns. The Alpine Coaster was SO fun!!!! We went on the last weekday before the season changed to weekends only and there was nobody there...comparatively. We rarely had to wait in line. I highly recommend going when there are fewer people. We more than got our $ worth, but if you had to... More

Having rarely been on a cave tour, my ten year old son thought the tour was absolutely fantastic. I found it rather unpleasant, because the guide had apparently spent untold days/weeks/months/years guiding cave tours and was unpleasantly snippy in telling people where to stand, where to stop, where to move, where to not stop, where to not stand, where to...

We were in Glenwood Springs for a weekend in February. The park is open at that time of the year but many of the activities are closed until spring. The gondola ride up to the top of the mountain afforded a nice view of town and the river. The cave tour was really nice. At first, we weren't too sure... More

We went for the cave tour which was really interesting. We also bought the pass for the activities but it was disappointing that not all the activities were open. The big swing was not open as well as many other activities yet there wasn't any discount on the price of admission. Having said that we really enjoyed the alpine coaster... More

Great guides and spectacular caves. The rest of the theme park provides plenty of campy fun for all kids and the views from the mountain top park is spectacular. Don't miss the Alpine Slide! More
