Item Description

Experience the beauty and heritage of the American West at The Broadmoor, a celebrated resort that combines European elegance with authentic adventures and activities in every season. This is where the spirit of the West inspires the adventurer within, providing endless opportunities to explore the majestic mountains, streams, and canyons that have inspired generations. Whether you're interested in the thrill of zip lining adventures, the exploration of hiking, the technical challenge of off-roading or smooth travels via Segway, you'll find endless activities!

Nestled on 5,000 lush acres under the shadow of Cheyenne Mountain, Colorado's unsurpassed natural beauty surrounds The Broadmoor and provides endless possibilities for adventure and exploration. The Resort is framed by the picturesque mountains, lush meadows and scenic canyons that captivate the imagination. The Broadmoor has remained one of the most recognizable and celebrated hotels in the world. Opening in 1918, the hotel's distinctive blend of history, luxury and genuine hospitality has made it the longest-running consecutive winner of both the AAA Five-Diamond and Forbes Five-Star awards. Discover the extraordinary activities and warm, personalized service that has made The Broadmoor an iconic destination among Colorado hotels.

Guests seeking one-of-a-kind adventure vacations will discover an array of inspiring outdoor activities to enjoy during their stay, from Soaring Adventures over Seven Falls and scenic train rides up Pikes Peak, to distinctive Wilderness Experiences that feature their own unique lodging, dining, and activities. From horseback riding and hikes along scenic mountain trails to rock climbing instruction and fly fishing excursions, guests are encouraged to immerse themselves in the unique culture of Colorado with the help of exceptional staff. Whether you prefer to tee off with the pros on the legendary golf courses or perfect your swing with the award-winning tennis program, you'll find an unmatched selection of activities.

Make the most of the outdoors with one of four thrilling adventure tours! The two-hour Segway tour of the Cheyenne Cañon and Broadmoor Area features a stop at Starr Kempf's fascinating metal sculptures, allows you to ride the trails of Cheyenne Cañon and stop at the historic Starsmore Discovery Center, and explore the Penrose Heritage Museum, the Pikes Peak Hill Climb Museum and a variety of other collected artifacts. For an adrenaline-filled day, get a new perspective on Colorado scenery as you soar between rocky expanses on the Fins Course Zipline Tour at Seven Falls. Fly down five ziplines extending up to 1,800 feet (548 meters), plus traverse two suspension bridges and bound down a 180-foot (54 meter) rappel. What better way to admire stunning views of Colorado's scenery? The Old West High Country 4X4 Jeep Tour is an extraordinary way to explore the rugged landscape and natural beauty surrounding Colorado Springs as you go through secluded backcountry locations high in the mountains of the Pike National Forest. You won't have to worry about navigating on your own thanks to a guide, who will provide context about the area's history and geology. You don't need to be a hard-core mountaineer to enjoy the Colorado wilderness with the beginner-friendly Classic Crags Hike near Pikes Peak in Colorado Springs. You'll join your guide to explore this classic five-mile trail where you can traverse a short distance with a slight elevation gain, and learn how to approach a front country hike. Along the way, you can take in the views of streams and rock formations.
