ROYAL GORGE
Welcome to Colorado's Natural Wonder. A place where looking down is even more breathtaking than looking up. A place that brings together the scenic beauty of the Grand Canyon and the human achievement of the Golden Gate Bridge.
PIKES PEAK
The most visited mountain in North America and the second most visited mountain in the world behind Japan's Mount Fuji, Pikes Peak forms a stunning backdrop for Colorado Springs and the Garden of the Gods. At an altitude of 14,110 feet above sea level, Pikes Peak is the 31st highest peak out of 54 Colorado peaks. It is the farthest east of the big peaks in the Rocky Mountain chain, which contributed to its early fame among explorers, pioneers and immigrants and made it the symbol of the 1859 Gold Rush to Colorado with the slogan, "Pikes Peak or Bust".
CLIFF DWELLINGS
The Manitou Cliff Dwellings is a rare historical treasure. Preserved under a protective red sandstone overhang, authentic Anasazi cliff dwellings, built more than 700 years ago, await you here. There are no "Do Not Touch" signs. You are free to touch and even go inside these fascinating architectural remnants of an American Indian culture that roamed the Four Corners area of the Southwest from 1200 B.C. to A.D. 1300.
COG RAILROAD
For 115 years, the Manitou and Pike's Peak Railway (the world's highest cog train, the highest Colorado train AND the highest train in the United States) has taken passengers to the 14,110 foot summit of Pikes Peak.

In 1938, after substantial development, Mr. Penrose incorporated the Zoo as a non-profit public trust for the people of Colorado Springs “for the sole purpose of establishing and maintaining a zoological park to provide recreation, education, conservation, and scientific facilities in the field of zoology and related subjects, and to preserve the Zoo in perpetuity for the people of the Pikes Peak region.” The Zoo's income is derived from earned revenues, membership dues, donations, corporate sponsors and grants.

CASINOS(CRIPPLE CREEK)
The town of Cripple Creek has done an excellent job in incorporating casinos and gaming with its historic gold mining origins. Cripple Creek is still an old west gold town, complete with casinos, saloons, slots, poker and blackjack. A little bit of something for everyone - especially the Colorado gambler. While Black Hawk, Colorado seems to have drifted more to the larger more vegas style casinos, Cripple Creek has maintained its gold mining town feel. There is a certain friendliness to Cripple Creek that draws people here.
THE WORLD ARENA
The Colorado Springs World Arena is the premier sports and entertainment venue in the Pikes Peak region. Locally owned and managed, the non-profit CSWA and the attached Ice Hall regularly host sporting events, concerts, family shows, banquets, trade shows, graduations, religious rallies and civic events.
