Step Into the Shadows: Eldorado Canyon State Park's 3rd Annual Haunted History Hike!
When night falls over the canyon, the trail whispers secrets of the past... Do you dare to listen?
Back by popular demand, our come-to-life "wax museum" history hike returns for its 3rd year! Step into the dark to encounter living figures from Eldorado's colorful past (and present...).
