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.

Explore Colorado Springs' surroundings by going to Cañon City (Royal Gorge Regional Museum and History Center, River Rafting & Tubing, &more), Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center (in Divide) and Mollie Kathleen Gold Mine (in Cripple Creek). Pack the 26th (Mon) with family-friendly diversions at Cave of the Winds Mountain Park.
