Travel Experience Manitou Springs

At the highest point at the top of Pikes Peak Mountain the train stops so tourists and visitors can enjoy the panorama for about 50 minutes before making its way back down.

When we were in Manitou Springs the train left a few times a day but in other months this might be less, depending on the number of tourists and weather conditions.
