The historic ruins of a massive stone dam within Castlewood Canyon State Park, a fascinating landmark and the centerpiece of many hikes.
Visit the impressive ruins of the Castlewood Dam to touch a dramatic piece of Colorado history. In 1933, this dam failed, sending a 15-foot wall of water towards Denver. Today, the remaining stone structure is a fascinating and picturesque landmark within the park. It’s a great destination for a family hike and a powerful reminder of nature's force and the area's rich past.
