Here’s some information you may find useful before your trip (sourced from Wikipedia and other research):
Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve is an American national park that conserves an area of large sand dunes up to 750 feet tall on the eastern edge of the San Luis Valley, and an adjacent national preserve located in the Sangre de Cristo Range, in south-central Colorado, United States. The park was originally designated Great Sand Dunes National Monument on March 17, 1932 by President Herbert Hoover. The original boundaries protected an area of 35,528 acres. A boundary change and re-designation as anational park and preserve was authorized on November 22, 2000 and then established by an act of Congress on September 24, 2004.
In many places within Great Sand Dunes National Park & Preserve there may not be any cell phone service. To stay in touch with loved ones no matter where you travel, rent one of our Satellite GPS Messenger devices .
The oldest evidence of humans in the area dates back about 11,000 years. Some of the first people to enter the San Luis Valley and the Great Sand Dunes area were nomadic hunter-gatherers whose connection to the area centered around the herds of mammoths and prehistoric bison. They were Stone Age people who hunted with large stone spear or dart points now identified as Clovis and Folsom points. These people only stayed when hunting and plant gathering was good, and avoided the region during times of drought and scarcity. The park contains the tallest sand dunes in North America, rising to a maximum height of 750 feet from the floor of the San Luis Valley on the western base of the Sangre de Cristo Range. The dunes cover an area of about 30 sq mi and are estimated to contain over 1.2 cubic miles of sand. The Great Sand Dunes are located in the high elevation desert of the San Luis Valley at about 7,694 ft, just west of the Sangre de Cristo Range.

The park preserves the tallest sand dunes in North America, as well as alpine lakes and tundra, mountain peaks over 13,000 feet in elevation, mixed conifer forests, grasslands, and wetlands. >Medano Creek, which borders the east side of the dunes, never finds a permanent and stable streambed as fresh sand falls in the creek. Small underwater sand ridges that act like dams form and break down, creating surges of water which resemble waves. The surges occur at an average interval of about 20 seconds. In a high-water year, the surges can be as high as 20 inches. The surge flow mainly occurs during the peak flow period from late May to early June in most years.
