➡️ MUST DO IN SOUTHWEST COLORADO⬅️

💾 If you’re visiting the San Juan Mountains, you must save this stop to add to your itinerary.

Located in Ouray, CO, 📍 Box Cañon Falls Park is an easy stop for people of all ages. With a 500 foot catwalk and option to walk down to the water, as well as access to ascend a trail to another catwalk to see it from the top down, this is a must stop in Ouray. With its towering rock walls and 285-foot waterfall, Box Cañon Falls is a natural wonder that offers a unique and memorable experience for nature lovers and bird enthusiasts alike. The trail to the top down view can be considered strenuous for some, as it’s a steep incline, uneven, and pretty rocky.

💵 Pricing:

$5 = 4-17 yo

$7 = 18-61 yo

$6 = 62-74 yo

FREE = 75+ and 3yo and under

🐶 Dogs are NOT allowed within the park boundaries, but may cross the perimeter trail above to see the top down view.

Have you visited Box Cañon Falls before? My favorite time to go is in May/June (these videos in a previous year) when the falls are raging, and again in the winter January/February when it feels like an 🧊 fairytale.
