Worth a drive, the view is awesome. We just happened to be on this route to another destination and took the family back again to look around. Lots of bicyclers and hikers on a fairly narrow road so be extra careful. The places to pull off and look charge a fee but worth looking around.
My cousin and I love kayaking here. It's fun whenever there are speedboats or jetskis passing by...it creates waves which makes kayaking more exciting. Kayaked to 2 Coves and it was beautiful. We kayaked further and further whenever we come here, it's a nice lake to explore. Parking is $7 and there're plenty of them even on weekend. There are picnic tables, camping sites around the area. You can rent kayak and paddle boards here too.
Love this area, but the main attraction is the hard work and dedication put in by the rangers in the area to keep it safe and beautiful. I cannot express enough thanks for the park ranger Joanna. She pointed me on the right path and even gave me some extra advice on the most beautiful areas this time of year. Joanna made my trip to Horsetooth one I will never forget. I can tell her future is bright just from her passion for her work. I hope to see more rangers like her in the future!!!
Horsetooth Reservoir is a beautiful! Great place to bring your boat and enjoy the lake. You can paddle boat, walk around the camp ground and even bring your bike and bike up the hills to look over the Reservoir. It’s breathtaking!
Gorgeous camping area right next to the lake. Mature trees, clean and well designated camp sites. We highly recommend and will visit often.
