What is there to do in Colorado Springs?

35 posts in this topic

So I recently moved to the Springs from Denver and I am sad to say, there is definitely some culture shock. 

What is there to do for fun in this town? 

Anyone have any suggestions?

Depending on what you like to do, there's tons to do. Garden of the gods. Hiking up Red Rock canyon, cave of the winds, Santa's worship up highway 24, the zoo, pioneers museum. AND if you feel like being a little naughty, I'll take you the broadmoor and we can brighten the cheeks of the rich and famous. Old Colorado city had some great art galleries,  I could go on and on.

Melissa left out Pikes Peak, Cripple Creek gambling district up the canyon, within hour drive world class rafting adventures on Arkansas River, Royal Gorge, endless fishing opportunities. Oh, and the gorge train currently celebrating Oktober fest on the dinner train - lotsa beer, good food and scenery anyone? Prime aspen viewing next couple weeks. And ....... welcome to the better part of state lol. 😄

I do miss Denver! I will definitely make it a point to come up to my old stomping grounds. ;)

We definitely need a broadmoor date asap. It has been too long since I saw you last.

Royal Gorge is magnificent, though not exactly in COS - neither is Cripple Creek.  But if we're expanding the city limits, go to Canon City, tour the prison museum and then go to Le Petit Chablis - magnificent French place.  The train through the gorge is way over-hyped and the food decidedly mediocre - at least when I made the trip.

Go to the Garden of the Gods, and then drive west on Route 24 - about five miles west of Manitou (a neat little town) there's a winery - The Wines of Colorado.  Nice atmosphere by a creek, and decent food - though not outstanding - but very nice people and pretty good CO wine.

Absolutely nothing.  You should leave that horrible place and come up to Louisville (Denver suburb), where you can stay with me while you get re-settled.  I love your ink!

 

P.S.  I actually love COS, just kidding y'all!

If you go to Canyon City to Royal Gorge, the old women's prison is definitely worth the visit. There are some great shooting ranges there as well if you like to shoot. Have fun love!

Loads of new art. The trip was fun but not the best one ever. Would love to catch up next time I am in Denver, unless you have wanderlust...
