Colorado National Monument is one of those places that feels like it should be talked about more, especially for travelers who want the real story on accessibility before they arrive. I recently visited the monument and put together a new firsthand review for Blind Travels that covers what the official park information says, what the overlooks are actually like on the ground, and how the experience holds up for blind and low vision visitors.

In the new article, I talk about the accessible areas around the visitor center, the paved overlooks that are easier to navigate, and the rougher paths that become much more challenging once you leave those developed spots. I also share which overlooks stood out the most to me, including Cold Shivers Point, Independence Monument View, and Coke Ovens Overlook.

If you are planning a drive through western Colorado, or just want to know whether Colorado National Monument is worth the stop, this article will give you a clear and honest picture. It is a beautiful place, and while it is not fully accessible, it is still very much worth experiencing with the right expectations.
