I must go out here at least once a year. So close to town yet the feel of being way,way out of town. The aw King is easy and gorgeous the flowing streams are wonderful. A fun pleasant picnic area,wonderful.....

Well laid out, easy to find a great camping spot. Many different hiking/biking/riding trails for many different levels. Reasonably priced. We are from Colorado, but have come up here several times because it's so great!

CGSP has had quite a bit of monetary and physical attention over the past couple of years, including a new trail system (bike trails covered on IMDBs official website), and a welcome center. I love to ride, hike, fish, and kayak this area. Looking forward to putting a sailboat on Crystal, ASAP (Granite allows motorboats, Crystal has motor restrictions).

The Curt Gowdy State Park is located along Wyoming Highway 210, a.k.a. Happy Jack Road that runs from Cheyenne in Laramie County. The altitude of the park is 7.500 feet, equal to 2.300 metres, which are excellent conditions to get in good shape. There are great hiking and bike trails as well as fishing oportunities. The wildlife in the park... More

I was new to Cheyenne, and not sure what to expect for the Mtb. scene - but very surprised by this trail system. It is really good singletrack, with a lot of options due to the criss-crossing of trails.

We take our kids (ages 2, 4 and 6) here to hike and run around and they love it. Make sure you hike all the way to hidden falls.

We had not planned to stop here on our trip but so glad we did. What a beautiful park! There is no entrance fee unless you plan to stop along the way. Just to get out of the car requires a fee. That did not deter us...we just enjoyed the drive through the park.

The mountain biking trails here are epic. Seriously, IMBA has ranked Curt Gowdy Park as one of their "Epic" trails systems. Stone Temple Circuit (Counter clockwise) is my personal favorite, although Middle Kingdom looks good. Have not had a chance to ride those yet. But I will very soon. I will be up there as long as there is no... More
