Beautiful view of Boulder. Good trails and off trials. It seems like a good place to chill and talk. I like climbing on some huge boulders and looking at the city. Driving up and down and parking can be a stress sometimes.

Panorama Point provides a beautiful view of Boulder. It is easy to access by both hiking and driving. Although it is a somewhat popular spot for locals, it is quite peaceful at both sunrise and sunset. There are multiple rocks and overhangs for taking photos. There are also a few benches and a dedicated parking structure.

I loved it here.. Lots of relaxing places to sit, or trails to go hiking. Beautiful views.. I want to go back and explore more. It was a 25 -30 minute drive up the mountain. Cant wait to go back

Fantastic views of Boulder, Longmont, Broomfield, and beyond! Go during the day, and then come back at night - two totally different experiences and both well worth having! Plus, at night you can take a short hike up to the mountainside star, enjoy the cool night air and the views while sipping your hot drink on the slope!

Gorgeous hike. Good beginner level trails, tons of vegetation and red rock.

Very accessible place with incredible views. Parking is very limited. You will also need to pay for parking either at the ranger booth or at the self pay machine. Watch for bicyclists on the way up because the road is very narrow.

Cool place definitely got me in the mood for a panorama. Lived up to the name. Four stars because of the crowds of loud cars. Thanks.

My Wife & I Started At The Boulder Creek @6Am (Which We Could Hear Roaring The Whole Way up) and Got To The Panorama Point With Nobody Else on The Trail//IT WAS GREAT!! ...Once There Tho, I Felt Some Sort of Way. We Were Still In The City, But Kinda Removed?!?! It Was a VERY GOOD Morning With A Great View & Time Well Spent.

If you are into hiking, start off at the bottom of viewpoint trail (you don’t have to pay for parking!) and hike up to Panorama Point. It’s a steep and steady incline but if you hike at a moderate pace it will take you about 30 minutes and there are beautiful views at the top. Once at Panorama Point there are a ton of trails to take across the street in lots of different directions. It’s totally worth going and you have some spectacular scenery on the way.

This was a nice place to sit and relax and and enjoy the sights after hiking up Flagstaff mountain. I wish I had brought a sandwich and had lunch up there as well. You can get some good pictures if you want, or just take in the serenity of the views. There are picnic tables in the area and hiking trails if you want. There is also a parking lot nearby if you want to enjoy this piece without the hiking.

This place is breath taking. The way there is quite scary but its worth the drive. This place shines at night, it is one of the most beautiful sceneries I have laid my eyes upon, definitely a must go to place if youre in the Boulder area!

During the holidays, a hike from the base to the Boulder star is a must. To be in the middle of the Star, soaking up the towns lights is just magical. Wear proper hiking footwear, the hill is really steep.

This location gives a panoramic and unobstructed view of the city Boulder. It also has a iron BBQ stand with a picnic table. It is just a great location for a weekend gathering with friends and family.Nearby there are numerous hiking trails leading to grassy places for nice chigun or yoga exercises.

Great place to catch view of Boulder City and neighboring areas. You can see downtown as well as University campus. The parking is paid if you want to park next to the point otherwise you can always hike up to the panorama point.It has few picnic benches where you can relax under the shade. Due to elevation, it’s nice to even on a sunny day.

This isn’t really a stop. it’s okay if you just wanna get out of the car but there’s nothing there. A trail goes down to the city below but it’s about two miles and nothing to do in the city. Don’t stop here.

Classic view of Boulder. Have to pay to park, but that is due to high popularity. Peole enjoy this view. Some erosion on the ADA route.

Thought it would be a hiking place, but not really. You can drive directly to this point! Though the traffic design is a bit odd. The direction goes the opposite way as usual traffic.

I recommend hiking slower here. For example, if youre like me you just run up the mountain with your friends and 4 year old. You end up on a cliff face with signs saying protected area for birds of prey.Stay on the trails and read the signs. Dont make my mistakes.

The first time I ever came to Boulder I was always told this was a place was highly recommended! Man this place did not disappoint!! The view is spectacular. I came two nights in a row right before the sun set. This place was probably my favorite out of everything I did the 5 days I was there. I cant wait to go back and I will always tell my friends and family about the panorama point!
