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.

Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum and Penrose Heritage Museum will appeal to museum buffs. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Glen Eyrie Castle and U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum. Explore Colorado Springs' surroundings by going to Divide (Mueller State Park & Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center). And it doesn't end there: walk around North Cheyenne Canon Park, see the interesting displays at Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center, take an in-depth tour of ANA Money Museum, and get outside with Adventures Out West.
