Dorothy Falls is a waterfall located in Queens Canyon. It is a nice short
hike originating from Glen Eyrie
center but the waterfall itself is in Pike National Forest. Trail head is
located just north of the Glen Eyrie castle, visitors should use overflow
parking. After entering the canyon you will walk across a few short bridges
above the creek bed. You will cross the stream several time along the hike.
Once you reach the waterfall you can continue on to a series of punch bowls
further up north.
Directions: From I-25 exit on Garden of the Gods road. Turn left on 30th street. After about 0.5 miles you will see Navigators entrance sign on the right. Proceed to the main gate. Glen Eyrie is open to public Monday through Thursday, 9AM - 4PM and you will have to sign a release at the gate. Please check their website for more details or changes.
