Garden of the Gods Segway tour: the ride in the red rocks
A Garden of the Gods Segway tour is a guided ride along the park's Juniper Loop. The route passes Kissing Camels, Praying Hands and the High Point Overlook, and the park's visitor center also names Three Graces and Sleeping Giant among the sights. You roll mostly on the bike lanes beside the park road, so it is a road ride with big views, not an off-road trail.
Entry to the park is free. Prices are per person and current as of November 2026: $155 for one ride and $160 for the other.

Two Segway tours compared
Both rides run 90 minutes, both carry a 4.9 rating, and both include a helmet and a local guide. The ride at $155 also lists the Segway and a mandatory briefing, and it has 121 reviews. The ride at $160 is named for the Juniper Loop route and has 136 reviews. For a family of four, that is $620 against $640, so the $5 gap per person rarely decides the choice. Pick the one whose start slot suits your day.
How the ride works
Before you roll, a guide trains the group in the parking lot. The operator counts about 30 minutes of training in a total of 1.5 to 2 hours, and the ride itself runs 1 to 1.5 hours, mostly on the bike lanes through the park.
The visitor center lists starts every hour from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Afternoon showers are common in summer and the sun is strong, so a morning slot is the safer pick. Bring a water bottle, a light jacket or sweatshirt and sunscreen, and use the restroom before you leave.
Who can ride
The park's visitor center sets a minimum age of 12, and minors ride with an adult. Children need to weigh at least 100 pounds, and every rider must be under 250 pounds. You need good balance, solid footing and the ability to step off in an emergency. Pregnant guests cannot ride. The operator rates the tour moderate to challenging.
Weather and timing
Tours do not run below 45 degrees Fahrenheit, and heavy rain, lightning or ice also cancel a ride. The guide makes the call, which matters most for winter dates. Arrive early: in summer, parking and the shuttle can take up to 30 minutes, and guests who turn up late may miss the tour and still be charged.
Park rules on the route
Stay on the official paths and roads, take nothing from the rocks and do not block the pedestrian and bike lanes. For other ways to see the park with a guide, our Jeep tours and bike tour pages cover the alternatives.
