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.

Visit Peterson Air & Space Museum and Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site for their historical value. Kids will appreciate attractions like United States Olympic & Paralympic Museum and Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum. Change things up with these side-trips from Colorado Springs: Mueller State Park (in Divide) and Outlaw and Lawmen Jail Museum (in Cripple Creek). The adventure continues: see the interesting displays at Western Museum of Mining and Industry, admire the masterpieces at Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center at Colorado College, trek along Palmer Park, and take your sightseeing to a higher altitude at Cheyenne Mountain State Park.
