Create an itinerary including Rainbow Falls
Rainbow Falls (informally known as Graffiti Falls) is a waterfall located on Fountain Creek in Manitou Springs, Colorado. The falls' plunge is located beneath a bridge that links Manitou Avenue to Highway 24.

The trailhead to the falls is located on a 180-degree bend on Serpentine Drive, about 1⁄2 mile (0.80 km) off of Highway 24 across from the entrance to the Cave of the Winds. The falls were closed in 2013 for improvement from the El Paso County Parks Department, but have since reopened with a concrete walkway that snakes along the river.
Rainbow Falls is just one of the many highlights you can arrange to see using our , online itinerary creator Edition.

    Amazing hike and waterfall. You hike next to the beautiful river with smaller waterfalls and the final one is huge and amazing. They really have it clean and tidy.
