However, some of these natural wonders in Colorado are a little bit more secret and hidden than others. Some of Colorado's beauty is only known to certain people that are familiar with the area.

One natural wonder that Colorado has plenty of is waterfalls, and some of these amazing waterfalls are unnamed and only a handful of locals know about them.
