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.

Old Colorado City and Glen Eyrie Castle will appeal to history buffs. Take a break from the city and head to Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center and Red Rock Canyon Open Space. Change things up with a short trip to Skyline Drive in Canon City (about 1h 10 min away). There's still lots to do: walk around Garden of the Gods, deepen your knowledge of military history at United States Air Force Academy, learn about all things military at National Museum of World War II Aviation, and look for all kinds of wild species at North Cheyenne Canon Park.
