Parking

Parking is available within the park. A valid park pass is required on each vehicle. $10 daily passes are available at the Self-Service Pay Station at the entrance to the park or at the Visitor Center. Vehicles must be parked in the parking lot - no vehicle access at site. However, when available, a five-passenger golf cart can be rented for a donation to drive down the Fountain Valley Trail to both overlooks.

If you schedule your event on a weekend, please note that a reservation does not guarantee entry into the park, as we frequently reach parking capacity. Please ensure your guests arrive early. Car-pooling is recommended.

Special Considerations for Overlook Rentals

  • Events may only be scheduled during hours in which the Park is open and staffed.
  • Events are scheduled to avoid conflicts between groups wishing to use the area but do not restrict other park visitors from using the facility.
  • May decorate but can’t use staples, nails, glue, etc. Leave it as you found it.
  • No Signs
  • Confetti, rice, bird seed or release of any items (including balloons) are not permitted.
  • Ceremonies only, no receptions.
  • No fires or grills
  • The Visitor Center is a non-smoking facility – no exceptions.
  • Park regulations prohibit the sale of any items or services in the Park without a concession permit, this includes paid photography.

To reserve either of the overlooks for your wedding or event, please call (303) 973-3959 or email Roxborough.Park@state.co.us.

A Special Activity Agreement (SAA) is required for all rentals. This form must be filled out, sent in, and approved by the Park Manager prior to your visit. In most cases a fee is required in addition to the park entrance fee.
