Pike’s Peak is known as “America’s Mountain” sitting at over 14,000 feet in elevation and providing over 80 miles of scenery. There’s a few ways to get to the top of Pike’s Peak. The Manitou Incline is the world’s largest stair set and is now legal to hike (it used to be considered trespassing, which didn’t stop anyone). This is the exercise-enthusiast’s dream come true as it provides a challenge you probably won’t succeed at your first time.

The railway climbs up the mountain and through curves and grades to see areas that are only visible from the train route which is now open year round!
Aside from Pike’s Peak, which is a hiker’s dream come true, you can also explore the The Cave of the Winds, The Garden of the Gods or the Manitou Cliff Dwellings! The Cave of the Winds offers two types of ours to accommodate the more timid spirit as well as the more adventurous—“the Lantern Tour is not for the faint of heart!” Finally you can also explore the Manitou Cliff Dwellings constructed by the Anasazi tribe or Native Americans. These cliff side dwellings help you to step back into a piece of American history right in our own backyard!
