The only way to get to top of falls is to walk up 242? steps.
The elevator takes you to a high point a lateral distance away from the center of the falls. I thought I would have enjoyed being right above the falls, but the point the elevator takes you is quite a distance away. There was simply no way to get my 50 year old boyfriend to do the climb, so we didn't get to the top. There's only one fall. See website. AAA $1 discount.
This was not worth the cost. Helen Hunt Falls is much prettier and is free. Entertainment here wasn't good either. If you want to spend money to walk on steep stairs to see a trickle of water on some rocks go ahead and do this. There are gift shops but other than this nothing worth paying for. Again, Helen Hunt Falls is just down the road and is FREE and a larger water fall.
The falls were beautiful. The trails were great. We did see a bear, but he left us alone. Very fun and beautiful.
There are many other places to experience the beauty of Colorado without all of the manmade stairs, elevators and admissions fee. I would recommend taking a hike to a more natural waterfall or getting outside of the Springs to really experience the uninterrupted beauty of Colorado. Woodland Park and Mueller State Park offer more idyllic Colorado beauty.
I recently visited Seven Falls in Feb 08. It was beautiful even though the falls were frozen. It was pretty cold and had even snowed that day and that only made it prettier. Its one of the top places to see in Colorado Springs according to me and in summer you can actually spend quite some time here hiking too.
