Description

Lover's Leap is on the south side of US Highway 285 a few miles west of CO Highway 470 and a mile or so east of Parmalee Gulch. Under the right conditions, there are many possibilities for mixed, alpine-style climbs.

Getting There

The best approach from the Denver metro area is to drive south on US 285 exit at Parmalee Gulch/Indian Hills and head back down canyon to a large pull-off directly below the cliff. From the parking area, walk down the embankment towards the creek then look for a small rocky gully and head up on a well used trail. Allow 30 minutes for the approach.
