8 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.

Venture out of the city with trips to Cañon City (Royal Gorge Bridge and Park, River Rafting & Tubing, &more) and Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument (in Florissant). There's much more to do: walk around Garden of the Gods, meet the residents at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, deepen your knowledge of military history at United States Air Force Academy, and cruise along Pikes Peak - America's Mountain.
