Forsberg Iron Spring Park
Panoramic Green Mountain views from downtown Denver to Pikes Peak
About this park
Forsberg Iron Spring Park sits on Green Mountain with panoramic views stretching from downtown Denver to Pikes Peak to Red Rocks Amphitheater. The dog park area within the larger mountain park has separate sections for large and small dogs, with seating and gazebos for humans. The terrain is rocky in spots and the scenery is the main draw; it is best paired with a walk on the connecting trails.
Amenities
Forsberg Iron Spring Park reviews
What visitors consistently sayReviewers rave about the sweeping panoramic views (downtown Denver, Pikes Peak, and Red Rocks all visible from the benches and gazebos). The separate large- and small-dog sections and the connected cement walking loop around the rest of the park are repeat favorites, along with the native-plant garden and picnic areas.

Before you go
The rocky terrain can be hard on paws; booties are helpful in winter. Save this visit for a clear day to get the full impact of the mountain views.
