Colorado Springs offers so many incredible hikes. Too many to post!
So we recommend that you download the Alltrails app to find the perfect hike for you!
We recommend Criterium Bicycles
6150 Corporate Dr Colorado Springs, CO 80919
(719) 599-0149. If you do rent a bike, the Santa Fe Trail is also very close and there is an entrance to it at Woodmen/I-25.
The closest white water rafting is about an hour from our home in Canon City - it’s definitely worth it, and the rafting there is great. The Royal Gorge Bridge is there too which is worth seeing. Here are some links for you: http://www.canoncity.org/visitors/index.php, http://www.royalgorgerafting.net/ - this company does both rafting and zip line tours.
We do have zip lining available much closer to us though. Manitou Springs which is right next to Colorado Springs, about 20 minutes away, has zip lining. Here is the website for that one - Pike’s Peak Ziplines. http://www.advoutwest.com/co-tours/co-ziplines.html
