9 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.

Your inner history buff will appreciate Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site and Old Homestead House Museum. Visiting Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument and Seven Bridges Trail will get you outdoors. Change things up with these side-trips from Colorado Springs: Canon City (The Winery at Holy Cross Abbey & Tunnel Drive), Victor's Gold Camp Ag & Mining Museum (in Victor) and Divide (Mueller State Park & Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center). Next up on the itinerary: trek along Palmer Park, get your game on at Battlefield Colorado, get outside with Adventures Out West, and stop by Focus on the Family Bookstore.
