Winter is here in the Pikes Peak region, but there’s no need to hibernate. There\u2019s plenty to do in the \u201coff-season,\u201d with more than enough entertainment in and around Colorado Springs to fill cold days and long winter nights.<\/p>\n

Because of an abundance of mild winter weather, the area\u2019s beautiful outdoors can be enjoyed year-round \u2014 from hiking to golf and rock climbing to bicycling. An extensive urban bike trail system is often as dry and navigable in January as in June. Golf courses may get snow, which then melts and leaves them perfectly playable in February. Take a hike in Garden of the Gods or spend a few hours at a local playground on any sunny day. There are lots of things to do in Colorado Springs in the winter.<\/p>\n

And, of course, head to Colorado\u2019s mountains to enjoy world-class skiing, including Cuchara Mountain Park<\/a> in southern Colorado, which recently restarted its long dormant ski lift.<\/p>\n

Snow fun in the Colorado Springs area<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A lot of folks head to the mountains for downhill skiing, but there\u2019s abundant snow fun to be had in the Pikes Peak region, too.<\/p>\n

There is great sledding in area parks that are also great for snowshoeing, fat-tire biking or cross-country skiing<\/a> after a snowfall or for mountain biking and day hiking when it\u2019s dry. Also, consider engaging in various scheduled programs at the county parks, from snowshoe hikes to birdwatching to archery. El Paso County\u2019s Bear Creek Nature Center<\/a> and the Fountain Creek Nature Center<\/a> both have terrific-oriented family programs. The county also has a broad network of trekkable trails in the Black Forest area, especially Fox Run Regional Park<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mueller State Park, only about an hour away up Ute Pass, has cross-country and snowshoe trails, as well as some great sledding spots. There are winter-themed family programs, too. Programs are free with a daily $10 parks pass (per car). Check out its website<\/a> for more program information.<\/p>\n

If you have your own snowshoes or cross-country skis, you can trek around any city park. With more than 9,000 acres of parks and 500 acres of trails, there\u2019s bound to be a place you\u2019ll enjoy. Their website has a full list of city parks.<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course, the Colorado Spring’s premier park<\/a> is Garden of the Gods<\/a>, where you can take a sedate walk, scoot around on a Segway or strap on a harness and go rock-climbing when the weather is dry (permit required for rock climbing). Or just spend some time there with a camera \u2013 it\u2019s beautiful in winter, with the snowy silhouette of Pikes Peak providing the background for red-orange sandstone formations. It\u2019s also a great place for wildlife watching at dawn and dusk. Nearby Red Rock Canyon Open Space<\/a> offers stunning hiking trails as well as mountain bike trails and a bike park.<\/p>\n

Ice is nice as a winter activity<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Escape the real chill \u2013 by going indoors. Several local ice-skating rinks<\/a> are available year-round, including the municipally-owned Sertich Ice Arena<\/a> in Memorial Park, with regular open skating sessions and skate rentals. It\u2019s the perfect place to learn to skate, with lessons offered on its NHL-sized rink.<\/p>\n

Or check out the World Arena Ice Hall<\/a>, adjacent to the Broadmoor World Arena. The Ice Hall is purportedly one of the finest training facilities in the nation. The Ice Hall has public skating sessions all winter.<\/p>\n

Visit these indoor adventures<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If the weather isn\u2019t nice, or you just don\u2019t like the cold, there are a lot of indoor pursuits that will fill a winter\u2019s day \u2013 or evening.<\/p>\n

Start with the architecturally gorgeous Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum<\/a>, located at 215 S. Tejon St., in the ornate 1903 El Paso County Courthouse. Here, you\u2019ll learn about the region\u2019s colorful history and even see part of the reconstructed home of author Helen Hunt Jackson. Changing exhibits and innovative programs make it worth more than one visit a year.\u00a0 <\/strong>It\u2019s a must for history buffs. It also offers regular programs for kids and families. Admission is free.<\/p>\n

The American Numismatic Association\u2019s Money Museum<\/a>, 818 N. Cascade Ave., displays money and financial facts as you\u2019ve never seen them before. If the weather is bad, they also offer virtual tours and exhibits.<\/p>\n

Families might enjoy a visit to the World Figure Skating Museum,<\/a> 20 First St. It is appropriately located near The Broadmoor Hotel. After all, Peggy Fleming, Dorothy Hamill and many other top Olympic figure skaters trained at the Broadmoor. While there, be sure to stop by the admission-free Penrose Heritage Museum<\/a>, which includes antique cars and carriages, and memorabilia and race cars from the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb on the other.<\/p>\n

And if your interest in the Olympics goes beyond skating, be sure to visit the new U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Museum<\/a> downtown. A stunning new 20,000-square-foot building houses an expansive exhibition space and interactive exhibits that will keep you entertained for hours.<\/p>\n

Enjoy warmer outdoor adventures<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Cheyenne Mountain Zoo<\/a> offers a different experience in winter than in summer. Yes, some of the critters are tucked away snug in their warm beds, but others revel in the cooler weather.<\/p>\n

If the weather outside is frightful, head to Cave of the Winds Mountain Park<\/a> for an indoor tour any time of year. The temperature in the caves stays pretty much the same year-round.<\/p>\n

You can also experience the beauty of winter from inside The Broadmoor Manitou and Pikes Peak Cog Railway train cars. This is the highest altitude train of its kind, reaching 14,107 feet. If you love train rides, there other opportunities<\/a> throughout Colorado.<\/p>\n

For more attractions and details about winter hours and admission fees, check out Visit Colorado Springs<\/a>, and for local special events, check out Peak Radar<\/a>, a community calendar listing everything from free family events and the fine arts to concerts and festivals.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s so much more. A terrific library system offers dozens of programs every week, helping to keep families entertained (visit Pikes Peak Library District<\/a>). Many Colorado libraries also offer free passes<\/a> to state parks and local attractions that you can “check out.” New, state-of-the-art movie theaters (with recliners for seats), trampoline centers, indoor rock-climbing walls and much more offer endless entertainment opportunities for all ages.<\/p>\n
