Welcome to Colorado Springs

With over 300 days of sunshine a year, a mild climate, awe-inspiring natural beauty and the fresh mountain air, there’s never a lack of things to experience around the Colorado Springs region. Hike or bike our many trails, even to the summit of America’s Mountain-Pikes Peak. Rock climb the famous red spires of Garden of the Gods, brave the Arkansas River in a kayak canoe or tour-guided raft.
