@user-ck4el2cc9b and in Parker halfway to Springs is a park with the little incline...shorter not as steep and easier...with ziplines to go down (for an added price) although the hike itself is free..you could test yourself on that

When I lived there, the incline would call out to me- Then right before I left I accepted the challenge and I conquered the incline. When I reached the top I said that was it for me- one and done. Now I feel the challenge to beat my original time. The incline is a beast!!! I loved it and hated it at the same time and I am so glad I did it!!!

Yep! It’s a short hike (.8 miles). Just take your time on the up (2,000 feet). Start early. Bring lots of water, snacks, and a hat. Take pauses when you need to, which should be often. It’s not about conquering the incline… it’s about surviving. Since it’s your first time, you will set a PR either way! 🙌🏼 Good luck!

Is this hike worst than the Stairway To Heaven from Oahu??
@thetwinswolff Жыл бұрын
The stairway to Heaven is for sure steep… and super humid with some scary side steps. This one isn’t too long but it’s silly steep with really big steps. No danger of falling off or slipping. But it can get pretty hot during the summer and elevation is a factor for sure. So I’d say it’s equally as hard if not a bit harder.

My first incline trip came in 1972. I cheated and actually rode the tram to the top! Then we hiked Barr Trail to the summit of Pikes Peak. Did in the Scouts. Leave Friday afternoon, ride tram, hike to Barr Camp, spend the night then hike from camp to the summit, eat lunch then hike back down to camp. Stay the night and pack out Sunday and ride the tram back down. Lots of fun. Did it two years in a row in my teens with my younger brother. It was a blast.

I'm from Iowa and I hiked the Manitou Incline back in 2020. It was super difficult for me until about 1000 steps in, but it seemed to get easier the more I got acclimated to the altitude. Unless you physically can't go any further, don't turn around. It's very satisfying to finish and the view from the top is incredible.

I’m a Colorado Native and after getting sick with a really bad infection, it impacted my lungs severely. I have asthma now and it’s really hard for me when it comes to cardio/incline/run now 😔 I’m only 20. Idk how to increase my stamina or do better with breathing. I badly want to do this (I work out everyday) but my breathing control sucks. Anyone got tips for this??
@thetwinswolff Жыл бұрын
Have you asked your Dr about getting an inhaler? That could help! And maybe biking could help. it allows for passive recovery and your gears can help lessen the aerobic burden. And recovery from a bad infection takes time. The incline isn't going anywhere. Nor are our Colorado mountains. ease back into adventure... it will be waiting for you.
