Things To Do
Pikes Peak - America's Mountain
Whether you're looking for a fun mountain drive, a variety of hiking trails, or a ride on the classic cog railway, there are plenty of ways for you and your crew to enjoy the stunning views of Pikes Peak. Please note this is a FOURTEENER (14,000 ft elevation), meaning it could be an intense adjustment for some visitors. If you decide to explore on foot, make sure to follow the marked trails and start with easier paths to avoid altitude sickness.
Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center
Take your little tikes to one of the country's top dinosaur museums (rated 2nd-best by both America's Best and Top 10) and enjoy dinosaur displays and ancient fossils. Don't forget to stop by the Children's Learning Center, which is a hands-on area that houses everything from dinosaur poop to a fossil dig site and other specially-curated activities.
Cave of the Winds Mountain Park
One of our favorite tourist attractions 13 mi outside of Woodland Park! History buffs can enjoy the Cave Discovery Tour, where they guide you through caverns formed by various crystals and rock formations. Paranormal fanatics can take on the more eccentric Ghost Tour featuring captivating stories of locals who once ruled the town. *Both tours are physically intensive given the terrain. Please double-check the description to make sure you and your crew are comfortable with a little challenge!* Adrenaline junkies can get their fix at the TerrorDactyl— a legendary 2-person bucket seat that drops 200 ft down the canyon.
Garden of the Gods
With incredible views and plenty of activities to enjoy around the area, this iconic tourist destination is well worth the drive. Explore from the comfort of your car or enjoy the great outdoors by hiking the grounds on foot.
Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center
Witness the beauty of Colorado wildlife up close at a nonprofit sanctuary for wolves & wild canines. Offering guided tours throughout the day, you can learn about these amazing animals and how this organization is bringing them back into their home in the wild. *reservations highly encouraged*
Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument
Beneath the grassy mountain valley lies one of the richest and most diverse fossil deposits in the world. Petrified redwood stumps up to 14 ft wide and thousands of detailed fossils of insects + plants reveal the story of a very different, prehistoric Colorado.
