Manitou Springs is a small, walkable mountain town known for its natural mineral springs, historic Manitou Avenue, the Manitou Incline, and the Pikes Peak Cog Railway. It punches well above its size for quirky local traditions — the Emma Crawford Coffin Races in October and the Great Fruitcake Toss in January draw crowds from across the region.
About six miles west of downtown Colorado Springs via US-24 — roughly a 15-minute drive. Free seasonal shuttles and parking lots serve Manitou Avenue on busy weekends.
Traditionally on a Saturday in late October on Manitou Avenue. Check the listings above for this year's date once it's announced.
