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 outdoors at River Rafting & Tubing and Pikes Peak - America's Mountain. Old Colorado City and Manitou Cliff Dwellings will appeal to history buffs. Go for a jaunt from Colorado Springs to Cañon City to see Royal Gorge Bridge and Park about 1h 20 min away. And it doesn't end there: walk around Garden of the Gods, see the interesting displays at Penrose Heritage Museum, take in the dramatic scenery at The Broadmoor Seven Falls, and brush up on your military savvy at National Museum of World War II Aviation.
