## Caption

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.⁠
