Reviews
"Fantastic place to take the family. Kind of pricey admission but a lot of clean and well maintained attractions come with it. We were advised to enjoy the gondolas first in case the wind picked up. Once across the gorge you have access to the theater and play ground and can walk the bridge as well. I recommend doing all the attractions. We had our little with us but the zip line looked amazing. We spent 2 hours here. Could have spent an hour more."
"Spring Break in Texas schools comes much earlier than most places, so my family & I enjoyed the benefits of an off season visit. No lines, no waiting & the ability to soak up all the untouched natural beauty of this magnificent park. We even got 1/2 price tickets for visiting late in the afternoon which was incredible."
"The ride coming here is very scenic and memorable. The view is very beautiful and incredible. The long on the bridge is very scenic and all of the state flags. The zip lining was great and it’s a good way of seeing all of it. Location and parking is easy to find."
"We drove out to the Royal Gorge from Colorado Springs, about an hour drive. The drive and scenery were awesome. We enjoyed the Royal Gorge. We rode the gondola across and then walked back across the bridge. Very nice, well worth the $30 each."
