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.

Get in touch with nature at Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center and Manitou Springs Incline. National Museum of World War II Aviation and Miramont Castle Museum will appeal to museum buffs. Venture out of the city with trips to Canon City (Skyline Drive & The Abbey Events Complex). There's much more to do: meet the residents at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, find something for the whole family at Cave of the Winds Mountain Park, take in the dramatic scenery at The Broadmoor Seven Falls, and steep yourself in history at Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site.
