If you have a bit of extra time and you’re happy to travel 20 miles, take a look at Salida. This popular place offers lots of things to keep you entertained. Salida Golf Club, Loyal Duke’s Dog Park and Rocky Mountain Mini Golf alone make the drive out worth it. The locals will also probably point you in the direction of Canon City, 40 miles away. If you can only see one attraction here, make sure it’s Royal Gorge Bridge. (But we’d also recommend Temple Canyon Park and Museum of Colorado Prisons.)
