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.

Old Colorado City and Manitou Cliff Dwellings will appeal to history buffs. Step out of the city life by going to River Rafting & Tubing and Red Rocks Group Campground. Explore the numerous day-trip ideas around Colorado Springs: Divide (Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center & Mueller State Park), Victor's Gold Camp Ag & Mining Museum (in Victor) and Skyline Drive (in Canon City). There's lots more to do: learn about all things military at National Museum of World War II Aviation, explore the historical opulence of Glen Eyrie Castle, stroll around Garden of the Gods, and see the interesting displays at Penrose Heritage Museum.
