If you can only choose one tour in the Colorado Springs area, the Pikes Peak tour is the one to take! This spectacular 14,110 foot peak offers visitors "a purple mountains majesty," for it was because of this magnificent mountain that Katherine Lee Bates wrote "America the Beautiful". This tour’s route travels up historic Ute Pass through the village of Cascade to the well-maintained Pikes Peak Highway. As the road climbs higher, each new curve offers yet another spectacular mountain vista and you´ll see mountains, dense forests and tundra, a fragile and desolate ecosystem in which one footstep off the path can take years for Mother Nature to repair.

At the summit you’ll feel like you’re on top of the world, and the views stretch for miles. To the south, the often-snowcapped Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range and the Gold Rush town of Cripple Creek seem close enough to touch. To the west lies the Continental Divide eastward "amber waves of grain" roll on farther than you can see, while the north shows the distant skyline of Denver and beyond that, the peaks of Rocky Mountain National Park.

During the 60-mile round trip tour, we will take several rest stops so you can slowly acclimate to altitude changes, stretch your legs and take pictures. Be sure to bring a jacket - you’ll need it at the summit!
