Hermit Park Open Space is a public park managed by Larimer County Natural Resources. Please note that there is a $9 entry fee unless you have a valid Larimer County Parks Pass.
Hermit Park was once a working cattle ranch as well as a private retreat for Hewlett Packard before being purchased by the county. The hike to the top of Kruger Rock is one of the highlights of the park. The Kruger Rock trailhead is located inside of Hermit Park, but the trail soon enters US Forest Service land, where this cache is hidden. The cache is hidden slightly off-trail near one of the overlooks, which offers a sweeping view of Longs Peak and the Continental Divide.
There is a limited amount of parking at the trailhead. Additional parking, as well as drinking water, is available on the opposite side of the access road near the large pavilion.
