Pikes Peak Highway is an awesome drive. The road is steep and very curvy and the views are just awesome. Up at the top we could see for miles and miles with gorgeous views of many other mountain ranges. It was a great trip. We were lucky to go on a day when there were very few clouds and no rain. Many of the days we were here in the Springs it was very cloudy and rainy over Pikes Peak. There is a cog rail train that goes to the top of Pikes Peak. I am sure it is a very beautiful ride but we opted to take the highway.
