Your Cog Railway experience doesn’t begin or end on the mountain, because here you’re connected to the legendary Broadmoor resort and endless possibilities for adventure and exploration: mountains, meadows, canyons, more than 300 days of sunshine every year and the natural beauty of the American West with unique retreats and escapes. Not to mention the many things to do in Manitou and Colorado Springs. This is a vacation that’s worth getting on board.
As the world’s longest-running consecutive Forbes Five-Star and AAA Five-Diamond resort, The Broadmoor sets the standard for impeccable service and distinctive amenities. This is luxury. But it’s also where the spirit of the West inspires the adventurer within.
A magnificent series of seven waterfalls located in a 1,250-foot-walled box canyon. At Seven Falls you can experience all of the beauty conjured by the word “Colorado” in one fantastic setting. Hiking, views, winding streams, towering rock formations, and of course, the Falls. Learn about its history, visit the shops, and dine at the authentic Restaurant 1858.
Thrilling is probably the best way to describe one of the top ten zipline courses in the world, although pulse-pounding and unforgettable will also do nicely. Fly through Cheyenne Canyon 200 ft, over the “Grandest Mile of Scenery in Colorado.” Ten ziplines, two suspension bridges, a 180-foot controlled rappel into the canyon, and an overwhelming sense of accomplishment.
