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.

Bring the kids along to Garden of the Gods and Cave of the Winds Mountain Park. Change things up with a short trip to River Rafting & Tubing in Cañon City (about 1h 15 min away). There's lots more to do: admire nature's wide array of creatures at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, explore the world behind art at Michael Garman Museum & Gallery, get a taste of the local shopping with Manitou Cliff Dwellings, and expand your understanding of the military at United States Air Force Academy.
