5 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.

Rocky Mountain Food Tours and Manitou Cliff Dwellings are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Step out of the city life by going to River Rafting & Tubing and Pikes Peak - America's Mountain. Step out of Colorado Springs to go to Cañon City and see Royal Gorge Bridge and Park, which is approximately 1h 20 min away. There's still lots to do: stroll around Garden of the Gods, get in on the family fun at Cave of the Winds Mountain Park, get to know the fascinating history of Old Colorado City, and shake up your sightseeing with a climbing tour.
