In evidenza

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 paleontologists 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.

Itinerario

  1. Colorado Jeep Tours offers high quality, scenic, and informative off-road jeep tours based from Cañon City. Our interpretive tours of the Royal Gorge, Red Canyon, and the historic gold mining district of Cripple Creek and Victor offer a variety of information including western history, geology, paleontology and more while traveling some of the most beautiful trails in south/central Colorado. Our professionally-driven guided tours offer a fun and interesting way to see and learn about the Royal Gorge region, and they are enjoyed by people of all ages. Cañon City is located about 45 minutes from Colorado Springs or Pueblo, and 2 hours from Denver, so we’re an easy day-trip from many front range cities. We offer 1/2 day and full day jeep-only trips (starting at 3 hours), and full-day combo packages with rafting, the Royal Gorge Bridge, wine tasting, the Royal Gorge Route Railroad, and zip-lining over the Royal Gorge.

  2. Historic dinosaur-fossil quarries with trails, picnic tables & scenic overlooks in a rugged setting.

    15 min

  3. 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’ favorite. Here you can feel free to explore on the trail or off—a true adventure.

    10 min

  4. The single-lane, one-way road rises about 800 feet above the surrounding terrain. There are no guardrails despite sharp drop offs, and the drive is about 3 miles long.

  • 5Fantastic Jeep Tour

    Fantastic Tour, fantastic company. Absolutely book one (or more) of their tours. First, Jennifer, you are a 10. You answered all my questions, gave hints and not only took care of scheduling the Jeep tour but the Royal Gorge Train reservations as well. You were so patient with me. So convenient working with one person. Thank you so much for your amazing assistance. We only had time for 1 tour. We did the 1/2 day Red Canyon. So much fun. Our guide was Paul - another 10. He provided so much history and information. Before heading to the canyon, Paul took us around very interesting parts of town and gave us all the history of each site. Then the drive to the canyon, beautiful countryside with more history. The drive into the canyon and through the canyon is beautiful. The road through part of it going up the canyon is crazy. Short part is really bumpy, but so much fun. Paul is more than an expert plus driver. His knowledge of so much history is worth the trip. This is first class operation with really great people. We are talking about making another trip to Canon City from Texas again. We had no idea what a great spot it is. We will definitely take one of their other tours when in Canon City again. Actually there are 2 other tours I'd really like to do on our next trip. Don't miss the opportunity to do a jeep tour with them.

About Cañon City

Cañon City is a Colorado town on the Arkansas River below the Royal Gorge, with a high suspension bridge, dinosaur fossil sites and whitewater nearby.

Cañon City lies on the Arkansas River where it leaves the mountains, at about 1,600 metres, with its streets of brick Victorian buildings and a collection of prisons that earned it a reputation as a prison town. One of them, the former women's prison, is now a museum of Colorado's prison history.
