Tucked into an open space behind twin hogbacks, with a series of red rock outcrops and pinnacles reminiscent of Red Rocks Park, South Valley Park is one of the most enchanting places to hike in the metro area.⁠ ⁠ Located just south of Ken Caryl, South Valley Park is a gem in the Jefferson County Open Space system, a geological marvel. It has beautiful, mellow trails, one of which takes hikers on a path with stunning red rock formations on both sides.⁠ ⁠ Click the link in our bio to read more about why this spot is one of our staff’s favorites. ⁠ ⁠ 📝& 📷: John Meyer, The Denver Post⁠ ⁠ #Colorado #hiking #trails #optoutside
