About
The Glenwood Caverns Gondola Base is a trailhead and transit hub located in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, serving as the valley-floor terminus for the Glenwood Gondola. This facility provides access to hiking routes classified as moderate difficulty, with typical exploration times around two hours. The site sits at an elevation of 5,750 feet. Parking is available on-site, and the area accommodates pets. The location is accessible year-round, though the gondola itself may close or slow during high winds or lightning, particularly in spring and summer. The base connects visitors to the mountaintop Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park, which features cave tours, rides, and dining, though the hiking focus remains on the trails originating from the base.
