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.

Get in touch with nature at Pikes Peak - America's Mountain and Fountain Creek Regional Park. Get some historical perspective at Old Colorado City Historic District and Manitou Cliff Dwellings. Venture out of the city with trips to Cañon City (Royal Gorge Bridge and Park & River Rafting & Tubing), Victor's Gold Camp Ag & Mining Museum (in Victor) and Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center (in Divide). There's lots more to do: see the sights as you ascend with a climbing tour, find something for the whole family at Cave of the Winds Mountain Park, stroll around Garden of the Gods, and meet the residents at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.
