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 North Cheyenne Canon Park and Seven Bridges Trail make great kid-friendly stops. U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum and Peterson Air & Space Museum will appeal to museum buffs. Venture out of the city with trips to Tunnel Drive (in Cañon City), Cripple Creek (Phantom Canyon Road, Old Homestead House Museum, &more) and Divide (Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center & Mueller State Park). There's lots more to do: contemplate the long history of Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site, get outside with Adventures Out West, get engrossed in the history at Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum, and hike along Palmer Park.
