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.

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Glen Eyrie Castle and Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center at Colorado College. Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site and Old Colorado City. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Colorado Springs: Mueller State Park (in Divide) and Cañon City (Royal Gorge Regional Museum and History Center & Tunnel Drive). There's much more to do: take an in-depth tour of Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum, brush up on your military savvy at National Museum of World War II Aviation, trek along Seven Bridges Trail, and identify plant and animal life at Colorado Wolf Adventures.
