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.

Step out of the city life by going to River Rafting & Tubing and Pikes Peak - America's Mountain. Your inner history buff will appreciate Old Colorado City Historic District and Glen Eyrie Castle. Take a break from Colorado Springs with a short trip to Royal Gorge Bridge and Park in Cañon City, about 1h 20 min away. Next up on the itinerary: stroll around Garden of the Gods, steep yourself in history at Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site, deepen your knowledge of military history at United States Air Force Academy, and take in the dramatic scenery at The Broadmoor Seven Falls.
