Pikes Peak is one of the most famous mountains in Colorado and a prominent feature of the Rocky Mountains.
There are a few ways up, a paved road that allows visitors to drive to the summit. The highway is open seasonally from late May to October, weather permitting. The drive is approximately 19 miles and offers stunning views along the way.
The Pikes Peak Cog Railway, also known as the Manitou and Pike’s Peak Railway, is a historic train ride that ascends to the summit. It provides a scenic and comfortable way to experience the mountain. We also say people biking up or hiking up, but that was never a consideration. We drove.
