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 Garden of the Gods and North Pole Colorado Santa’s Workshop make great kid-friendly stops. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at North Cheyenne Canon Park and Seven Bridges Trail. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Colorado Springs: Divide (Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center & Mueller State Park). The adventure continues: contemplate the long history of Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site, stroll around Fox Run Regional Park, examine the collection at U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum, and learn about wildlife with up-close encounters at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.
