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.

Step off the beaten path and head to Penrose Heritage Museum and U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum. Get out of town with these interesting Colorado Springs side-trips: Divide (Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center & Mueller State Park), Cripple Creek (Old Homestead House Museum & Phantom Canyon Road) and Cañon City (Royal Gorge Bridge and Park, River Rafting & Tubing, &more). There's much more to do: stroll around Garden of the Gods, look for all kinds of wild species at North Cheyenne Canon Park, learn the secrets of beer at Rocky Mountain Food Tours, and take in the awesome beauty at Cheyenne Mountain State Park.
