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.

Visiting Palmer Park and Colorado Wolf Adventures will get you outdoors. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum and Rocky Mountain Food Tours. Next up on the itinerary: steep yourself in history at Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site, get engrossed in the history at U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum, examine the collection at Ghost Town Museum, and explore the world behind art at Michael Garman Museum & Gallery.
