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.

Museum-lovers will get to explore Pueblo Weisbrod Aircraft Museum and Penrose Heritage Museum. Step out of the city life by going to Helen Hunt Falls and Climbing Tours. Change things up with these side-trips from Colorado Springs: Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument (in Florissant), Rosemount Museum (in Pueblo) and Walsenburg Mining Museum (in Walsenburg). There's still lots to do: mingle with the ghosts of the past at South Park City Museum, have some family-friendly fun at Battlefield Colorado, admire the masterpieces at Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center at Colorado College, and walk around Garden of the Gods.
