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 Pioneers Museum. Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site and Peterson Air & Space Museum. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Colorado Springs: Mueller State Park (in Divide) and Canon City (Royal Gorge Regional Museum and History Center & Tunnel Drive). There's much more to do: listen to music at Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center at Colorado College, hike along Seven Bridges Trail, don't miss a visit to Starr Kempf's Metal Sculptures, and examine the collection at Penrose Heritage Museum.
