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.

Get some cultural insight at National Museum of World War II Aviation and Penrose Heritage Museum. You'll explore and learn at Manitou Cliff Dwellings and Miramont Castle Museum. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Colorado Springs: Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center (in Divide) and Skyline Drive (in Canon City). There's still lots to do: go for a walk through Pike's Peak - America's Mountain, take in the dramatic natural features at Red Rock Canyon Open Space, trek along Fountain Creek Nature Center, and expand your understanding of the military at United States Air Force Academy.
