Family trip to CO

[kfili]

I am finally taking a family trip out to CO in May. The trip is for a wedding but we are going to make about a week long trip of it. It will be myself, wife and our 2 kids who will be 7 and 5 at the time of the trip. We are looking for top hits to do while we are there, our family is very active and currently do a lot of hiking and biking here in VA. will probably also spend a day in CO springs to see a family member. What should we be checking out?
Thanks

Big state, what part(s) are you interested in seeing? Where is the wedding?

Oops, wedding is in Bailey. We'll be flying in and renting a car (I think). Ideally we can spend most of our time around where the wedding is so we don't need to spend too $$ on different places to stay

Staunton state park, Kenosha pass, Guenella pass

funny timing, just booked flights 10 days in June, gong Denver, 6 nights in Vail (not rich just get free employee nights hah), then Moab to top it with my wife and 5 yo. looking forward to it. Gonna bring some glass and hopefully can spot some sheep or wildlife in Vail. any WKRs in Vail area feel free to reach out if you have any tips.

If you're in The Springs, definitely check out Garden of The Gods.

I love old buildings, so The Broadmoor is cool. They offer tours, but we just walked around a bit and had a drink at the bar.

Should make a drive down from Bailey to Buena Vista then to the Great Sand Dunes. The river should still be running in May. It's a fun place to spend the day.
