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 inner history buff will appreciate Old Colorado City Historic District and Manitou Cliff Dwellings. Appreciate the collections at National Museum of World War II Aviation and Penrose Heritage Museum. Explore Colorado Springs' surroundings by going to Cañon City (Royal Gorge Bridge and Park, River Rafting & Tubing, &more) and Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center (in Divide). And it doesn't end there: stroll around Garden of the Gods, identify plant and animal life at North Cheyenne Canon Park, deepen your knowledge of military history at United States Air Force Academy, and get to know the resident critters at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.
