Royal Gorge. Red Cliff. Cherry Creek. While Colorado may not have as many bridges as other places, the ones we do have are nothing short of magnificent. If you are looking for a bridge that is not only stunning but boasts incredible views of Colorado’s vibrant fall colors, you are going to want to get to the must-see Seven Bridges as soon as possible:

Nestled away in the Cheyenne Canyon near Colorado Springs is the must-take Seven Bridges Trail, a nearly four-mile out-and-back path that is full of scenic surprises!
