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.

Your day by day itinerary now includes Space Foundation Discovery Center, Manitou Springs Memorial Park, Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company, and other attractions you added. Old Colorado City and Penrose Heritage Museum are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Get in touch with nature at Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center and The Broadmoor Seven Falls. Get out of town with these interesting Colorado Springs side-trips: Canon City (Royal Gorge Route Railroad, Royal Gorge Regional Museum and History Center, &more) and Mollie Kathleen Gold Mine (in Cripple Creek). There's still lots to do: stroll around Garden of the Gods, deepen your knowledge of military history at United States Air Force Academy, get to know the resident critters at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, and explore the striking landscape at Red Rock Canyon Open Space.
