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.

Attractions like Cheyenne Mountain Zoo and National Museum of World War II Aviation make great kid-friendly stops. Step out of Colorado Springs with an excursion to Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center in Divide--about 42 minutes away. Pack the 13th (Sat) with family-friendly diversions at Cave of the Winds Mountain Park. There's much more to do: walk around Garden of the Gods, admire the sheer force of Helen Hunt Falls, appreciate the history behind Will Rogers Memorial Shrine of the Sun, and cruise along Pikes Peak - America's Mountain.
