Overview

Walk across the tallest sand dunes in North America and explore Great Sand Dunes National Park at your own pace. A friendly narrator tells you stories about how the wind and rivers shaped these giant dunes and about the people who lived here long ago.

You can start at the Visitor Center, then climb the dunes, feel the sand in your toes, or slide down like you’re on a playground. Hike to Zapata Fall, stroll the Montville Nature Trail under aspen trees, and follow the Dunes Overlook Trail for big views. And, if you have time, walk the Mosca Pass Trail if you have more time.

This tour works without cell service. It gives turn by turn directions, travel tips as you explore and it never expires.

Download the tour, walk in the sand, tell your friends about dunes, waterfalls, and stories of Great Sand Dunes National Park enjoy this amazing park your way.

Blanca Wetlands, BLM

Take an informative detour to Blanca Wetlands, a restored oasis that offers a glimpse into the San Luis Valley's past before agricultural drainage transformed the landscape. This Bureau of Land Management project, initiated in 1965, showcases the vital role wetlands play in supporting water quality, soil health, and wildlife migration. Though closed during nesting season (February through July), this site tells an important restoration story.

If so, stopping by will only cost you a few bucks, and our perception of our place in the universe.

Colorado Gators Reptile Park

In a surprising twist of Colorado history, what began as a tilapia farm's solution to waste management evolved into a unique wildlife refuge for alligators. After purchasing about a hundred baby gators to handle dead fish, the farm transformed into a public attraction in 1990, drawing crowds curious to see these prehistoric predators thriving in the desert environment. Today, the Colorado Gator Farm has expanded beyond its scaly beginnings to become a sanctuary for various rescued exotic animals, including tortoises, snakes, and even sharks all finding an unlikely home in the San Luis Valley.

Fort Garland Museum and Cultural Center

Fort Garland Museum, located in Colorado's San Luis Valley, preserves an 1858 military fort that once protected settlers and served as a base for the legendary Buffalo Soldiers.

Zapata Falls

This hidden waterfall is tucked away inside a cave at the end of a short but adventurous hike less than a mile round trip. Getting to the 25 foot falls means splashing through water and scrambling over rocks, so if you have waterproof shoes, you’ll want to break ‘em out for this one.

Great Sand Dunes National Park & Preserve

Begin your visit at the Great Sand Dunes Visitor Center, where you can explore exhibits about the park's unique geology, diverse ecosystems, and rich cultural history. Pick up maps, watch an engaging orientation film, and get tips from rangers on the best trails or activities for your visit. This is the perfect starting point to plan your adventure in the towering dunes and beyond.

Montville Nature Trail

Montville Nature Trail is the shortest and easiest forest hike in the park, traversing through the former Montville townsite. It’s a quick half mile through shady Aspen forests. At about three quarters of the way in, you’ll break out to the highpoint, which offers a sweeping view of the dunes from above the trees. If you decide to do one trail in the park, I’d recommend this one.

Mosca Pass Trail (pass by)

Mosca Pass is a moderately difficult 7 mile long trail that continues from Montville Nature Trail, taking you to a pass in the Sangre De Cristo Mountains. It’s nice and shady, but not necessarily one of my favorites, so I’d recommend saving it for the if-you-have-time category.

Wellington Ditch Trail

The Wellington Ditch Trail is just under 2 miles of a relatively flat hike through pinon and juniper trees, ending at the Pinon Flats Campground. The trail follows an old hand-dug irrigation ditch dug by the Wellington family in 1927, and offers a few vantage points overlooking the dunes. Just keep in mind, this hike is one way.

Medano Pass Primitive Road

Medano Pass Primitive Road offers a rugged 22 mile backcountry adventure through stunning landscapes, including sandy creek crossings and lush meadows. Along the route, stop at Castle Creek Picnic Area for breathtaking views of the dunes and mountains, and look out for wildlife like deer and elk. Most notably, this is where the seasonal floods of Medano Creek create a temporary beach, complete with surging waves. High clearance 4WD vehicles are required, making this bumpy, sandy ride an exciting way to explore the park’s remote beauty.

Sand Ramp Trail

The Sand Ramp Trail is a moderate 11 mile (one way) trek that winds along the base of the dunes, offering sweeping views of the sand and Sangre de Cristo Mountains.
