Colorado truly has some magical park systems, from the enormous national parks to the wee little county parks. That’s the beauty of this state—it doesn’t have to be a gargantuan park to be beautiful. A perfect example of this theory is Sondermann Park in Colorado. Clocking in at less than 100 acres, this beautiful park is tucked away on the west side of Colorado Springs, which makes it a hidden gem for many.

Within the city limits of Colorado Springs, you’ll find a hidden oasis of 97 acres known as Sondermann Park.
