10 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.

Give yourself a bit of retail therapy at Glen Eyrie Castle and Museum of Colorado Prisons. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center and Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum. Explore the numerous day-trip ideas around Colorado Springs: Mueller State Park (in Divide) and Tunnel Drive (in Cañon City). There's much more to do: test your team's savvy at popular escape rooms, trek along Palmer Park, surround yourself with nature on Colorado Wolf Adventures, and don't miss a visit to Starr Kempf's Metal Sculptures.
