Overview

This interpretive 3-hour jeep tour departs from Canon City and meanders through bright red towering spires and monoliths sculpted by the erosion of the fountain formation. Your geological tour through time includes a short walk out to “Overlook Arch” and a up-close look at dinosaur footprints left over 107 million years ago. You will see where palaeontologists have been removing dinosaur remains for over 140 years from one of the most famous digs in history along with ancient Indian petroglyphs.

This scenic tour is just one of the amazing locations we visit from our office in Cañon City. If this tour doesn't meet your needs, we most likely have one that does. We offer tours and packages from 3 hours to all day. Be sure to see our other listings for more options.

Red Canyon Park
  • 1h
At Red Canyon Park you can explore 600 acres of piñon, sage, and beautiful red rock from the Fountain Formation. Formed 290-296 million years ago, this rock was created by a series of braided streams carrying material eroded off of the Ancestral Rocky Mountains! Operated by the City of Cañon City, the secluded Red Canyon Park is a locals’ favourite. Here you can feel free to explore on the trail or off—a true adventure.
Skyline Drive
  • 20m
The single-lane, one-way road rises about 800 feet above the surrounding terrain. There are no crash barriers despite sharp drop offs, and the drive is about 3 miles long.
