It’s summertime in the city and what better way to cool off than by sliding gracefully down a waterslide? No, we aren’t talking about the slides at Water World (though they can be pretty fun); we are talking about taking a ride down this epic natural waterslide that is located a few short hours from Denver:

Located near Colorado City is one of the state’s most thrilling natural wonders, which comes in the form of an all-natural waterslide!

Tucked away within the stunning San Isabel National Forest, this waterslide is comprised of both the cool waters of the St. Charles Creek and some of the smoothest boulders you have ever seen.

While a unique opportunity like this may seem too good to be real, we can assure you that it is; however, in order to ride the slide, there is some hiking required, so be prepared to work up a sweat before cooling off in the St. Charles Creek!
