The Royal Gorge Bridge & Park is well known for America’s Bridge. The 91-year-old suspension bridge is the highest in America and provides guests with breathtaking Colorado views. For the adventurous, the park has a new mountaineering experience, the Royal Gorge Via Ferrata. Guests hike and climb 600 feet down the side of the granite gorge. This experience is appropriate for both beginners (no experience needed!) and experts. Known for its family-friendly atmosphere, the park offers Gondolas that cross the expanse of the gorge, a children’s playland with carousel, Visitor Center with shopping and dining, and the Plaza Theater with historical film and display.  For the thrill seeker, the Royal Rush Skycoaster “swings” guests out and over the gorge, and the Cloudscraper Zipline by ZipRider flies guests across the gorge.   Special entertainment is scheduled throughout the summer with the Birds of Prey Show, and live music at Elk Park Amphitheater.
