Summer Hiking and Royal Gorge Whitewater Rafting Trip and Extreme Ziplining

 





Manitou Springs, Colorado- Summer Hiking near Pikes Peak and Royal Gorge Whitewater Rafting Trip and Extreme Zip Line!


July 16-19, 2021


Lodging
- The Cliff House at Pikes Peak.   

Nestled at the foot of America's Mountain, the historic Cliff House at Pikes Peak evokes an atmosphere of Victorian romance and opulence dating back nearly 150 years. From its storied start as a stagecoach stop to its turn-of-the-century prominence as the area's premier mineral resort, it remains the crown jewel of Manitou Springs. Stately and spellbinding, The Cliff House at Pikes Peak pairs the glamour of a bygone era with the modern-day style, sophistication and services worthy of its AAA Four Diamond status.
