The Great Outdoors
Cañon City is centrally located to several mountain ranges and forests; if there is any problem here, it is that there is too much to choose from. A guest could easily stay here for more than a week or two, and still not see everything. Those who seek elevation, for photo ops or just for themselves, can choose between Pikes Peak and Cheyenne Mountain, both near Colorado Springs, or Mt. Lincoln, Mt. Elbert, Mt. Harvard or Mt. Antero. These are more difficult hikes, Mt. Harvard reportedly being the hardest, and walking sticks are recommended. There are also lesser and easier peaks nearby, for hikers who might find these hikes too difficult. The mountains and peaks can be reached by car; the hikes begin from the parking lots.
RV Parks
Two of the RV resorts near Cañon City worth considering are Mountain View RV Resort and Royal Gorge / Cañon City KOA. Mountain View is family owned and operated; it has concrete pads with picnic tables and a fire pit, a laundry room and playground.

Desiree was very easy to work with and clear with communication. The van was in great shape, clean and prepped for us ~ she provided good instruction on the operation of the various systems and was extremely helpful preparing us for our trip. It was a great way to enjoy autumn in Colorado!

We have rented a couple of vans through Outdoorsy before and Hummingbird is our favorite. All the mechanical systems worked great and were easy to understand. Great water pressure at the sink and a hot water boost. The heater was handy for fall nights at high elevations in Rocky Mountain NP. We didn’t need the window screens but could see where they would be great in the summer. The window coverings were easy to put in place and made the interior cozy and dark for sleeping. The Murphy bed is very comfortable and folded up to provide great storage access. Danny was very patient with numerous pre-booking questions and flexible with our pick up of the van. Be clear, this van is located in Colorado Springs, not Denver.
