“Glory Hole park
Legend has it that at the bottom of Glory Hole Pond lies an old locomotive engine, well that doesn’t stop the dogs from enjoying a nice cool dip. The pond is fed directly from the Roaring Fork River. Numerous benches are scattered throughout the park for contemplative thinking or just plain enjoying the incredible views. Great place to relax with your dog or enjoy a picnic lunch.”
There isn’t a great park for large groups with seating that isn’t on the ground, but a couple parks have 1 or 2 picnic tables and plenty of grass around to sit on. There are lots of parks in different locations around Aspen to choose from. You should check out:
Herron Park
John Denver Sanctuary
Rio Grande Park
Molly Gibson Park
Henry Stein Park
I am looking for a park in Aspen that has picnic tables for a Road Scholar group that I am bring to Aspen. Thank you
