Garden of the Gods is in Colorado Springs, Colorado, with the Rocky Mountains as a majestic backdrop. The most notable mountain here is Pikes Peak, the highest in the range at 14,100 feet. You can drive, walk, cycle or ride a horse all through the Garden of the Gods as there is a wide path right next to the main road. I saw mule deer and coyotes here too! The Garden has a quiet serenity about it, with its inspiring red rocks and clear blue skies, punctuated by Pikes Peak. I could come here every day and never get tired!
