How to get to Cheyenne Mountain State Park
The park is about 10 miles south of downtown Colorado Springs via Highway 115, roughly a 20 minute drive. From Denver it is approximately 80 miles south on I-25 then a short jog west, about a 90 minute drive in normal traffic. RVers should note that I-25 through Colorado Springs can be congested at rush hour and that approaches from the west over mountain passes, such as US 24 from Woodland Park, involve steep grades and sharp curves. The closest major airport for fly-and-rent trips is Colorado Springs Airport, about 20 miles east, with Denver International Airport as a larger alternative.
