Great Sand Dunes National Park
The tallest dunes in North America, rising 750 feet against the snow-capped Sangre de Cristo Mountains at the edge of the San Luis Valley. Ripples and knife-edge ridges shift with every wind, and in late spring Medano Creek spreads across the sand in shallow surge waves. Night brings some of the darkest skies in Colorado over a landscape with no fixed features.
