Crestone Ziggurat

 
Crestone Ziggurat
 

Ziggurats are spiritual structures from the middle east and Persia. The Crestone Ziggurat was built by Najeeb Halaby, father of Queen Noor of Jordan. This structure is round and curves to the left as you ascend it. It seems to be unusually feminine in its construction. There is a specific spiritual practice of releasing, receiving, and activation in working with a Ziggurat.

Hours Open to Visitation

Sun up to Sun set

 ADA Accessibility Notes

You must hike on a sandy steep path to get there. Not sure if a wheel chair would fit on the Ziggurat itself.
