Inspiration Point Park

This is a small park situated on a hillside and it sure lives up to its name. A walk or ride up to the top will reveal a inspirational view of the whole city that on a clear day can be seen for miles and miles in all directions. This park has old growth pines trees that early in the morning you can smell their fragrant aroma and its like you are magically transported out of the city and into the middle of the mountains. The roads on either side of the park are very steep and offer good climbing challenges for cyclists and hikers.

Definitely recommend as a great place to watch the sunset. It's beautiful and calming, almost meditative.

Easy to get to, the viewing area is just the right size, plenty of parking. Not too big, not too small. Some benches and walls to sit on/climb on for a better view. Amazing that you can see the flatirons so clearly. Very brief walk to get to the viewing area - just a couple of minutes.I can confirm that the men are still parking and sitting in their cars alone at this place. I wasn't so scared of belongings left in the car, but my boyfriend was. Definitely go here in groups, not alone, and don't leave things out in the open in your car. Worth it for a solid sunset. Bring warm clothes for those windy days - it's high up enough to catch some good gusts.

Gitana G. is definitely spot on about the creepers in their cars. I've been here 4 times now and every.single.time there are a couple of single guys just sitting in their cars in the parking lot staring straight ahead. This is not an advertisement for free sex, because they aren't attractive by any means.... Most of these guys come complete with creepy rape/sex vans.The view here IS killer though. You can see the mountains for miles. There are nice patches of grass where you can have a picnic and some trees for shade. I would recommend this park, just bring along a friend or two.

Why do I like this park?1. The view. I had no idea you could get thus view in Denver on natural terrain.2. The mix of vegetation between planted flowers and high-prairie scrub.3. It is very quiet.4. I found it to be very relaxing.

This park is definitely beautiful. Amazing views and landscaping. They even have turd bags for the pooches.....That being said....The couple of reviews below are 100% on the money. Usually around sunset the parking lot is empty. But during the day the parking lot is full of dudes, just sitting in cars by themselves. It is weird and truly creepy.This park is sooo close to being 5 star perfect, but the creeper situation in the parking lot is a major deterrent.

Good views, but agree, so many cars in and out and guys sitting in cars staring. Don't go alone. Too many creeps.

Great park with some of the best views in all of Denver. I also like that they provide bags to clean-up dog mess.

It's a great park with a wonderful view, but be careful. It's a hot meet-up spot for single (and bored?!?!) guys. I go running there frequently and tonight a man watched me while fondeling himself in broad daylight. Bring a dog and/or some friends.PS. Great spot for family pictures.
