Nestled at the base of Pikes Peak, Manitou Springs is a classic Colorado town with a lot to offer. While exploring the area, you'll encounter many restaurants, shops, activities, and hotels, making it the perfect base camp for your thrilling mountain adventures. Manitou Springs isn't just a fun place to visit, it's also an amazing place to live. With so much to do around town, our real estate agents are here with a list of top recommendations:

• Tour The Mineral Springs - 354 Manitou Ave, Manitou Springs, CO 80829
  Manitou Springs is aptly named for its famous naturally carbonated mineral springs, which you can tour at any time. These 8 springs offer special healing waters, and they can be found all over town. The water is sourced from ancient underground aquifers. As the water forces its way to the surface, it absorbs high quantities of sodium bicarbonate, which adds natural carbonation. You can take your own self-guided tour of the springs by grabbing a map at the Manitou Springs Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Bureau.
  
  
• Climb The Manitou Incline - 10 Old Mans Trail, Manitou Springs, CO 80829
  Colorado provides many opportunities to get outside and enjoy nature! Widely considered the holy grail of cardio exercises, the Manitou Incline is a one-mile trail comprised of railroad ties with a 41% average incline and a 2,000-foot climb in elevation. The incline actually has more stairs than the Empire State Building. This isn't a light hike, and it's only recommended for experts. However, if you think you have what it takes to conquer it, it's an unforgettable experience. Online reservations are required.
  
  
• Grab A Coffee At Red Dog - 739 Manitou Ave, Manitou Springs, CO 80829
  If you need a coffee before heading up the mountain, stop at Red Dog, a wonderful cafe full of art, color, and good music. In addition to their delicious coffee, you'll also find tasty baked goods, fresh healthy food, beer, and wine. If you'd like to make a stop at Red Dog part of your morning routine, you might consider moving into one of these Manitou Springs homes for sale just down the road.
