The perfect place for many attractions Manitou Springs is just a little place west of Colorado Springs but a perfect starting point to visit Cliff Dwellings, Garden of the Gods, Caves of Winds, Seven Falls and of course Pikes Peak.
The village itself is pretty small with some nice stores especially for Indian crafts |
|  | Pikes Peak , 13 110 Ft Take the world's highest Cog Railway ($ 26.-- per person) which takes 1 1/4 hour or drive the 19 miles up to the summit through five different life zones.
Be aware of the altitude up there but enjoy the panoramic views of Colorado Springs, Garden of the Gods and the snow-capped Rocky Mountains |
Manitou Cliff Dwellings These Cliff Dwellings are rather small. An interesting place to learn the architecture of the ancient Anasazi. Natives perform dances. | | |

I've never seen cliff dwellings in Manitou Springs! How did you find them? | bugalugs Tue Dec 13, 2005 21:38 UTC

Nice page. I am going to Colorado next month for the first time and planning our itinerary. Your pages are helping me:-) J. | richiecdisc Tue Feb 8, 2005 11:52 UTC
Remo is looking very relaxed in Utah but funny that you had to go so far to ride a train from Zermatt! |
