쉬운 후에르파노 카운티 하이킹 및 워킹 코스

이른 봄에 최고! 그리고: 물 없이는 절대 안 돼요!

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.

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.

The Great Sand Dunes cover an area of approximately 80 km² and, at a height of approximately 230 meters, are the highest dunes in North America. The sand dunes are approximately 12,000 years old and were formed by sand deposits from the Rio Grande and its tributaries. You should be in good physical shape to hike the dunes. The constant inclines in the loose sand can be very strenuous.

Just really beautiful! A tough hike through the loose sand.

Always a good starting point for information about the area.

The Creek was completely dried up now.

The Visitor Center offers some great information about trails, campgrounds and geology of the National Park. There are restrooms and potable water is available. You can buy some merchandise and maps or just enjoy the cooler temperatures during summer time. The Visitor Center is open every day of the year except Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day.
