9 days in Colorado Springs Itinerary

Visiting Pikes Peak - America's Mountain and Helen Hunt Falls will get you outdoors. You'll explore and learn at Children's Museum of Denver and Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum. Change things up with these side-trips from Colorado Springs: Littleton Museum (in Littleton), Divide (Mueller State Park & Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center) and Pueblo (Rosemount Museum & Historic Arkansas Riverwalk of Pueblo). There's lots more to do: examine the collection at Penrose Heritage Museum, contemplate the long history of Western Museum of Mining and Industry, stroll through Seven Bridges Trail, and trek along Palmer Park.
