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.

Family-friendly places like Garden of the Gods and Pikes Peak - America's Mountain will thrill your kids. Venture out of the city with trips to Canon City (Royal Gorge Regional Museum and History Center, River Rafting & Tubing, &more). Pack the 21st (Mon) with family-friendly diversions at Cave of the Winds Mountain Park. There's still lots to do: admire nature's wide array of creatures at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, learn about all things military at National Museum of World War II Aviation, take in the dramatic scenery at The Broadmoor Seven Falls, and expand your understanding of the military at United States Air Force Academy.
