Welcome to Cañon City

Cañon City Colorado is a tiny Old West town born out of mid-19th century oil and gold discoveries in the southwest foothills of Pikes Peak. The Downtown Historic District, nearby Royal Gorge Bridge & Park, and a great environment for outdoor activities have made Cañon City a popular tourist destination. The Arkansas River cuts through the town, and a few miles upstream, the Royal Gorge Bridge crosses 955 feet above the river as the nation’s highest suspension bridge. The park at the bridge is a prime attraction, but the historic passenger train through the gorge, the walkable downtown, river rafting, fishing, mountain biking, wineries, and farmer’s markets all add to Cañon City’s allure.
