6 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.

Change things up with these side-trips from Colorado Springs: Cañon City (Skyline Drive, Royal Gorge Bridge and Park, &more). There's still lots to do: walk around Garden of the Gods, learn about all things military at National Museum of World War II Aviation, get in on the family fun at Cave of the Winds Mountain Park, and take in the dramatic natural features at Red Rock Canyon Open Space.
