The South Rim Visitor Center is a great place to begin any visit to Colorado's Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. The amazing views of the river from Gunnison Point Overlook are just steps away from the balcony surrounding the center, plus there's a few nearby hiking trails too. The black-rock cliffs which surround the canyon are estimated to be two billion years old!

Colorado's Black Canyon of the Gunnison was the last of the national parks that we'd visit on our extended road trip. We finally understand how the park got its name!
