Bishop's Castle is a very unique building, unlike anything I'd seen before. It truly is impressive, and beautiful what's been built here. We had fun climbing up to the various towers and around the c…Full review by TheSnuz

Yes this isn't a good place for the typical disney-park person. It is truly unique and authentic. Yes, it is mildly dangerous and there are goats running around. One goat head butted me because I sto…Full review by JaredDenver
Is this worth a stop (on our drive from Colorado Springs, CO to Great Sands Dunes National Park) if we don't plan on climbing?

I would plan to stop for 30 minutes or so just to get out and stretch. Keep the kids in sight at all times as it really isn't a place for them to go wandering because it is still under construction... I think they would enjoy looking at the outside properties of the building. I wouldn't go too far out of my way to see it. However... My nephew, age 6, says it is his favorite place. It seems to call to his imagination... It is on a beautiful drive. Make sure your vehicle is fueled as this is in a remote location.
I would think so but can't say for sure. Entry isn't controlled - no entry fee or anyone there at all, as far as I could see. Entry is at ones own risk and it's a work in progress.
