in Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs grew around the 1859 Pikes Peak gold rush town of Colorado City. The city offers unique outdoor art, historic mansions, and fun urban attractions, while thrilling outdoor recreation begins immediately on the city’s western edge. Hiking, biking, horseback riding, and Segway tours give views of the spectacular red sandstone rock formations in the Garden of the Gods. In the back country, jeep tours explore historic sites in the Pikes Peak foothills, the Fins zipline course through Seven Falls Canyon includes 5 ziplines, 3 suspension bridges, and a 180-foot rappel, the Crags Trail gives a taste of Front Range mountain hiking, and the Arkansas River yields trophy trout to river-running fly fishermen.
