You might have noticed that big mountain to the west. Hike the Barr Trail 13 miles to the summit (this is only for experienced hikers who understand high altitudes) or take the Cog Railway. There is a new summit house with unbelievable views on a clear day (wear sunscreen!).

Parks & Nature

Beautiful drive (Drive like you grew up in Colorado: rather than riding you brakes - downshift to a low gear when driving down hill), great hiking and a pretty place to picnic. Helen Hunt Falls. Drive up Cheyenne Canyon and down the Gold Camp Road.

Just a few blocks west of the house. Great for walking, biking, picnics, playgrounds and pickleball. Has an outdoor pool open during the summer months. Donated to the Colorado Springs by city founder William Palmer, the park runs for miles north to south along Fountain Creek. Wonderful views and historic trees and rock features.
