Day 1: Sunset Toasts & Starlit S’mores

Arrive in the late afternoon and step onto your balcony—the red rocks glow while Pikes Peak provides the backdrop. Ease into vacation mode with a cocktail hour at Rocks Lounge, then wander back to your patio or lodge balcony for s’mores and sky-full-of-stars conversation. It’s an easy, intimate start that sets the tone for the next two days of Colorado Springs romantic activities.

Day 2: Sunrise Rituals, Spa Bliss, & Poolside Evenings

Wake early for coffee together on the balcony and watch the first light splash across Garden of the Gods. Join a morning yoga class. If you’re planning something extra special, inquire about private yoga on the mesa for a breathtaking shared experience. Afterward, linger over breakfast at the Grand View Dining Room with those floor-to-ceiling vistas.

Late morning is perfect for an easy hike inside the park. Stop by the Visitor & Nature Center for a map and water, and capture a few photos you’ll frame later. Return for an afternoon couples massage at Strata Spa, where expert therapists tailor each service for deep relaxation and reconnection. 

Float between the Infinity Pool and your lounger as the sun dips; and when hunger calls, order a Garden of the Gods pizza to your cabana or room and keep the evening blissfully low-key. 

These are the simple, unhurried things to do for couples in Colorado Springs that make memories last.

Day 3: Sleep In, Breakfast in Bed & One Last Grand Finale

Sleep a little later and place your door-tag order the night before so breakfast in bed arrives right on time and enjoy the fresh coffee, warm pastries, and nothing on the agenda except each other. 

If you’re golfers, reserve a midday round on the 27-hole Kissing Camels course and trade friendly wagers between fairways and mountain views. 

Prefer a slower pace? Return to the pool, book a light recovery stretch at, or browse the Local Attractions guide for an impromptu scenic drive. 

As evening arrives, dress up for your last-night dinner at Grand View — an elegant close to a perfectly curated romantic weekend in Colorado Springs.

Customize Your Romantic Escape

Every couple travels differently, which is why this plan is meant only to be an example of what a romantic weekend at Garden of the Gods can look like. Swap a morning class for an e-bike ride, trade the hike for a guided photography stroll, or add a wine-paired dinner to celebrate something big. 

If you love packaged ease, ask about a romantic escape package where our team can bundle favorite touches like sparkling arrivals, late checkout, spa credits, or private fitness sessions so your couples itinerary in Colorado Springs feels uniquely yours.

Day 1: Arrive, Meet Your Mountain, Ease Into the Action

Afternoon check-in is around 4pm. Drop your bag, step onto the balcony, and let the red-rock skyline set the tone. Swing by the concierge to map your weekend. Ask about booking a zipline adventure, Jeep tours, horseback rides in the park, guided hikes, e-bike rentals, or even full-day rafting. They’ll match your adrenaline needs to the right outfitters and timing.

After that, hit up the pool for a sunset swim. Shake off travel with a dip in the Infinity Pool — nothing says “adventure weekend in Colorado Springs” like watching alpenglow fade across Pikes Peak from the water.

When it’s dinner time, keep it easy with room service or head out for casual bites at one of our many highly-rated restaurants. Skim all on-property options here: Food & Drink. Then turn in early for the night because tomorrow is going to be full-throttle.

Day 2: Ziplines, E-Bikes, and a Golden-Hour Wind-Down

Adventurers like you like to start the day early:

6:00 AM – Wake-up workout

Start with a Strata Fit class to fire up the legs and lungs. Grab coffee and something quick from a Beach and Cable Barista and you’re off.

9:00 AM – Choose your morning adrenaline

When you choose Garden of the Gods for your adventure weekend in Colorado Springs, you have plenty of options to fuel your adrenaline desires. Choose from:

• Zipline or via ferrata above pine forests and canyons. This is one of our signature adrenaline activities in Colorado Springs.
  
• Jeep tour to hidden overlooks and historic sites.
  
• Horseback ride along red-rock trails.
  
• Guided hike in Garden of the Gods for panoramic photos and local geology.

Browse more ideas and bookable options via our Local Attractions listings. You can always call the concierge and let them know what you are looking for. 

1:00 PM – Refuel & reset. 

Return to the resort for lunch and a quick stretch.

2:00 PM – E-bike Gold Camp Road. 

Roll an iconic rail-to-trail route with sweeping vistas and mellow grades. This is truly an epic add-on to your things to do during a Colorado Springs adventure list. Our Concierge can arrange rentals and shuttles.

4:00 PM – Back to base. 

Quickly change, then grab a front-row seat for sunset on the Rocks patio. If you’re trying to stay healthy, order one of our mocktails, or if you’re looking to celebrate your adrenaline filled day, go for a cocktail.

Day 3: Mobility, Recovery, and One Last Adventure

Here are some great options for your day three:

8:00 AM – Yoga for movers. 

A guided flow helps restore hips, hamstrings, and shoulders after yesterday’s push. This an ideal bookend to your adventure itinerary in Colorado Springs.

IV Therapy option. 

If you’re feeling the altitude, a session at Strata Med can support hydration and energy before travel. Just ask us about our wellness add-ons when you check in.

Late morning – Hot tub & pool cooldown. 

Alternate soaks and swims for the fastest reset, then order lunch poolside.

Afternoon – One more adventure.

Choose from one of these to get that final adventure in:

• Quick hike in Garden of the Gods for that final postcard view.
  
• E-bike spin to loosen the legs.
  
• Falconry demo or zipline add-on if you still have gas in the tank.

Head back, pack up, and promise yourself you’ll be back soon. This is how an adventure weekend in Colorado Springs is supposed to feel.

What to Know Before You Go

Start hydrating before you hit the altitude and keep drinking water once you arrive. Colorado’s dry mountain air is sneaky, so bring a reusable bottle, add electrolytes when you can, and sip steadily throughout your adventure weekend in Colorado Springs. You’ll feel the difference on the trail, the zipline platform, and everywhere in between.

Pack layers. Mountain weather can pivot from sunny and warm to breezy and cool in a single hour, so a light shell, breathable base layers, a hat, and SPF will carry you comfortably from dawn workouts to golden-hour patio time. 

Lock in your “big ticket” thrills early. Ziplining, rafting, guided hikes, and e-bike tours are popular adrenaline activities in Colorado Springs and prime times fill quickly. Let the concierge prioritize your must-dos and coordinate timing so the day flows.

Finally, build recovery into the plan. Performance climbs when you alternate push and pause. Add a mobility or yoga session to restore range, soak in the hot tub after long miles, and consider a quick IV therapy boost if altitude is new to you. A little smart recovery today means you’ll wake up on day three ready for one more win.
