Operated by Scout · Lakewood, Colorado
Tucked into Colorado’s front range, Lakewood serves as a prime gateway to some of the most striking natural landmarks in the American West. Scout’s signature trip combines two iconic sites—Seven Falls and Garden of the Gods—delivering a richly immersive Colorado outdoor experience that balances breathtaking scenery with relaxed, accessible outings. This adventure is designed for those eager to witness towering red rocks, cascading waterfalls, and sweeping canyon views without the rigors of strenuous backcountry treks.
