28 days in Colorado Springs Itinerary

Stunning Garden of the Gods Park scenery, blue skies and the glory of Pikes Peak-America’s Mountain have attracted visitors to Colorado Springs for more than a century.

Family-friendly places like Garden of the Gods and Cheyenne Mountain Zoo will thrill your kids. Venture out of the city with trips to Victor (Victor's Gold Camp Ag & Mining Museum & Vindicator Valley Trail), Cripple Creek (Mollie Kathleen Gold Mine, Shelf Rd, &more) and Canon City (Skyline Drive, Royal Gorge Anglers, &more). The adventure continues: find something for the whole family at Cave of the Winds Mountain Park, learn about all things military at National Museum of World War II Aviation, admire the sheer force of Helen Hunt Falls, and take in the dramatic natural features at Red Rock Canyon Open Space.
