Feel the rush of the Alpine Coaster as it winds down Iron Mountain, soar high above Glenwood Canyon on the Giant Canyon Swing, or take on Defiance, the highest looping roller coaster in the United States. Then head underground and explore a fascinating world on one of our two National Natural Landmark cave tours.

Fall gets even more festive with Mountain Top OctoberFest! Raise a stein, enjoy live music and German-inspired favorites and make some fall memories with the whole family.

Breathtaking Views and Unforgettable Experiences Year-round!

In Spring, milder weather and smaller crowds make it the perfect time to explore rides and cave tours at Glenwood Caverns while soaking in the sweeping canyon vistas. Summer brings the full excitement of peak season, with all attractions in full swing — from heart-pounding thrill rides and the Glenwood Gondola to fascinating cave tours. Come fall, the park transforms into a festive Octoberfest celebration, where seasonal decorations and themed events are set against a stunning backdrop of autumn mountain colors. And in winter, the mountain becomes truly magical, sparkling with holiday lights, visits from Santa, and live entertainment that make the season merry and bright.

Visit us for thrills and adventure in any season!

What a getaway! Beautiful and fun. Staff was friendly and professional. The ride operators' focus on safety and protocol was truly impressive. The measures taken to protect the caverns is exceptional and I have never seen formations so pristine. A gem especially for families.

This park is amazing! It may not be as big or well-known as other theme parks, but that’s part of what makes it such a unique experience. As the only mountaintop theme park in the U.S., it offers breathtaking mountain views throughout the park. Although the selection of rides is limited, they definitely make up for it in thrills, especially with the cliffs so close by! The cavern tours were also very interesting. While they weren’t the most impressive caverns I’ve ever visited, they were still fascinating and well worth exploring. Overall, this park offers a one-of-a-kind experience that’s definitely worth checking out!
