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.

Your day by day itinerary now includes Cosmo's Magic Theater. Get in touch with nature at Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center and Bear Creek Nature Center. Popular historic sites such as Old Colorado City and Manitou Cliff Dwellings are in your itinerary. Change things up with these side-trips from Colorado Springs: Victor's Gold Camp Ag & Mining Museum (in Victor), Royal Gorge Bridge and Park (in Cañon City) and Red Rocks Group Campground (in Woodland Park). There's much more to do: walk around Garden of the Gods, learn about all things military at National Museum of World War II Aviation, trek along Fountain Creek Regional Park, and admire the masterpieces at Michael Garman Museum & Gallery.
