Marijuana Shops

There are only 2 recreational marijuana shops in Manitou. If by chance you are travelling through Pueblo or Denver to get here: buy on the way! It's way cheaper tax wise... otherwise, these two carry all you need to experience the CO 420 scene
Organic recreational bud sales, parking is easiest up the hill in the lot behind the dispensary/gas station. You can save time by ordering online through their website too.

The 2nd and ONLY other recretional mmj sales in Springs area, otherwise you must go to Pueblo or Denver. This is a good shop, similar prices to Maggies with an easier to navigate parking lot.

Food Scene

Colorado doesn't really have it's "own" cuisine (or accent, lol)... so we borrow from the best. You will find a lot of green chilis used everywhere, some nods to our roots with Bison and Elk, as well as a strangely (Californian) love for seafood. TBH, as a native, I've always thought it odd how much CO loves seafood but also started eating sushi at 5 years old so...no complaints! Lol. Anywho, this is only a teeny list of the cool places to eat here. I hope you get to check some out. 👍🏻👍🏻
Breakfast all day, several kinds of bacon (including chocolate covered), fabulous food, pool, darts, video games, & live music on weekends.

Ok...so this place IS in Denver, I know. Thing is, it's the BEST sushi you will ever find in all of CO, CA, and TX (trust me, I've tried everywhere). So if you find yourself headed to Denver, don't miss this place. Not cheap, lines form an hour before it opens.... truly a gem!

Sightseeing

Weather warning: CO is famous for fincky weather, especially here in the mtns. SO: always have sunscreen, some light jacket, and a hat. If you have the stuff, you won't miss it. 👍🏻👍🏻 also, don't run away from an outdoor event too quickly, our weather also shifts quickly. In the Spring-Fall you can and might experience all four seasons with snow to hot hot sun in one day. One guarantee is that the sun never hides for more than 36 hrs. Dress in layers, expect wind.... have fun!!!! 😁😁 Oh, and don't feed the turkeys: they get aggressive 😬😂

Wear comfortable shoes, it's on a mountain and you'll be walking a LOT. Absolutely the best zoo I've ever been to though. They truly focus on rehabilitation and natural safe spaces for the animals. There is also a quick drive up past it to some cool lookouts and old buildings/churches.

There is a crapload of cute little shops up and down the main street of Manitou. Christmas themed spots, rocks, icecream (like 4+ individual shops...lol...we really like icecream), souvenirs, penny arcade (more like quarter now), very dog friendly, and cool spots to try the mineral spring water (not tasty fyi but pretty cool). Each season has festivals and summer time outdoor movies/music for free. During tourist season, there is a free shuttle bus that runs from Beckers to downtown and back every 25 mins (park for free on El Paso or in the lot at the baseball/skate parks on Beckers)

Little village at the foot of Pikes Peak, it's everything you'd expect at first glance. More than a few Christmas themed souvenir shops (Santa's village isn't far 😆), several icecream places, a "penny" arcade... and the more fun part, coffin races, witches, a strong and vibrant lqbtq+ supportive hippie town with live music, drum circles, and animals everywhere (cats, dogs, deer, turkeys, elk, the occasional moose or bear). It's a lively interesting little place.
