Location Information
Parking for the Mount Cutler Trail can be found within the North Cheyenne Canyon Park. The trail leads one mile southeast to the canyon rim. This route provides good views of Seven Falls and the terrain southwest of it. If you continue following the trail to the east, as it wraps around Mt. Cutler, you'll get great views of Colorado Springs and the Broadmoor area. This is a short, easy hike; a good place to take out-of-town visitors who aren't interested in working up a sweat.
