Colorado Springs vacations are perfect for newlyweds and for families with children and teenagers. There is so much to do and experience that everyone will find things they want to do.
Not only is Colorado Springs one of the prettiest places in the country, but it has a ton of outdoor activities for you and your family. You will get your exercise and have fun at the same time.
Bring good walking shoes, sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses. If you love to take photos, bring your camera. There is so much to photograph. The natural beauty of Colorado Springs and the surrounding area is incredible.
Colorado Springs vacations are a joy because of the weather. The climate is so mild that it is a pleasure to get out and do things in the spring, summer, and fall. The heat is not too much and the humidity is low. Most of the winter is really not all that bad, either.
If you only have a week in the Springs, don't try to squeeze it all in. Choose a few things and take your time at each one and enjoy the places you visit. Do not rush from one place to another. Relax and enjoy the beauty and the coolness of the air. It is so clean and gorgeous.
I recommend that you try to visit the following places while you are in Colorado Springs as time allows:
