7 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.

You'll find plenty of places to visit near Colorado Springs: Cañon City (Royal Gorge Helitours, Royal Gorge Zip Line Tours, &more). There's still lots to do: learn about all things military at National Museum of World War II Aviation, get engrossed in the history at U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum, get outside with Outdoor Activities, and take a memorable drive along Pikes Peak - America's Mountain.
