The road into Colorado National Monument zigzags its way from the lowlands of the Grand Valley up onto the mesas that overlook the dramatic features and geological formations that define the area. A multitude of hikes, campgrounds, and viewpoints make the park accessible and enjoyable to people of all abilities and experience. The monument lies about 15 miles north of Grand Junction in Western Colorado.
