Vandring

With a height of 688 feet (at an elevation of 8,727 feet), High Dune is – along with Star Dune just next to it – one of the tallest sand dunes in North America. There are no trails leading up to the summit, but you can ascent the dune from the Dunes Parking by hiking crosscountry. The view from this majestic dune that is nestled at the foot of the Sangre de Christo Mountains is unique. Bring plenty of water and avoid the heat of the day and stormy weather.

Vandring

The High Dune isn't the highest peak of the Great Sand Dunes, but the view is breathtaking. The effort to tackle the sometimes steep sections is worth it. Plenty of water is recommended, as it can get very hot and windy.

Vandring

Hiking up the dune is a wonderful experience, but you should be in good shape. It can be strenuous to climb the inclines in the loose sand. The view from the dune is magnificent; you can see in every direction.
