Royal Gorge Bridge og Park
4218 Co Rd 3AThis is the highest suspension bridge in North America.
This is a free sightseeing you must see. Driving up Canyon Road is pretty breathtaking. Parking is free at the falls. Once you are finished checking this out, continue up the mountain to the dirt road for more breathtaking views on Gold Camp Road. There are a few tunnels on this road you will want to turn your headlights on. Some lanes are only big enough for one lane but they are two way so you might need to pull off to let a few cars pass. After this you will be close to The other attractions this area has to offer like Garden of the Gods, Old Colorado City, and Manitou Springs.
