3 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.

Step out of the city life by going to Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center and Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument. Museum-lovers will appreciate Penrose Heritage Museum and Commonwheel Artists Co-op. Change things up with a short trip to Old Homestead House Museum in Cripple Creek (about 1h 5 min away). There's much more to do: explore the world behind art at Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center at Colorado College, identify plant and animal life at Bear Creek Nature Center, and see the interesting displays at Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center.

In November, plan for daily highs up to 55°F, and evening lows to 27°F. Finish up your sightseeing early on the 1st (Sun) so you can travel back home.
