Located at the base of Pikes Peak, this National Natural Landmark and popular park features stunning geological formations, rock climbing, nature trails and the Garden of the Gods Visitor & Nature Center.
This is a tourist attraction. It is a lovely natural Red rocked City Park with lots of hiking ???? trails, beautiful rock formations such as the Siamese Twins, Sentinel Spires, the Scotsman, Giant Footprints, Cathedral Spires and of course, Balanced Rock. There are many ways to explore the Park. There are Jeep ???? Tours, you can hike, climb rocks or take the 1909 Trolley ???? like we did. The driver told us a lot of interesting historical facts. The only problem was she didn’t stop for any photos so we had to take them on the go. The Gift Shop was large with lots of merchandise. I purchased Huckleberry tea!

There are many ways to enjoy this valley which for you might include cattle drives, horseback riding, jeep tours, fishing, weddings, corporate team-building events, and hunting. Elk Glade is pleased to offer 2,000 acres of private land and 18,200 acres of leased lands.
Dawnielle and Jim were incredible guides! They taught us how to horseback ride in about 30 minutes and then we spent the morning on horseback doing a cattle drive in an amazing valley. Dawnielle cooked us a very nice lunch and then we were off again on the ATV's. My family and I loved the experience and it was so nice to spend the day enjoying being out in nature.

The location of NORAD, the North American Aerospace Defense Command, which offers limited tours to the public.
Cheyenne Moutain State Park is a beautiful park with lots of lovely hiking trails and great camping spots. Don't get this post wrong this is not a review for the Cheyenne Mountain complex which is no longer open to the public. If you come here you'll enjoy the beauty of nature and even see some wildlife as well. You won't be visiting one of the most well-defended military complexes in the world.

Colorado Springs is home to America’s mountain zoo. Located at 6,714 feet above sea level, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo offers breathtaking views of the city and of its 750 animals. The unique design of the Zoo’s animal exhibits gets guests closer than ever before. Hand-feed one of the largest reticulated giraffe herds in the world, watch grizzlies swim with trout, hop next to red-necked wallabies and get hands on with some of the Zoo’s smaller residents in The Loft. Have a WILD adventure at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo – see the animals, ride an antique carousel, eat a gourmet lunch at the Grizzly Grill and ride the Mountaineer Sky Ride to the Zoo’s summit. Visit 365 days a year for family fun at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.
Went there after the hail storm and you can still see the damage. Loved the ski lift ride that takes you over the zoo and you get beautiful views of the city. Feeding g the giraffes was a treat and the elephant show was fun. Highly recommend it!

I love to hike when I am in Colorado Springs for work. I try to end the day a little early so I can get up into the hills. Mount Cutler trail is a great, short, moderately strenuous hike.Great views of Downtown Colorado Springs and the Broadmoor.
