9. Academy Riding Stables
This is one move you won’t be saying “neigh” to. What better way to explore the Colorado wilderness without having to actually climb anything?

8. CO Kite & Ski
Are you ready for a challenge, travelers? If you came to Colorado to test your athletic ability at a higher elevation, riding a bike around the city will definitely test said abilities (you can’t imagine the hills, folks). Colorado Kite & Ski offers premium bike rentals (among other things, like kites, and skis…) so you can huff it up the hills of the Springs on two wheels. The best part of this Top 10 Colorado Springs rental shop? After you climb the hill, you get to speed down! Totally worth it. Open Wed – Mon 10 AM – 5 PM.
7. Springs Cab
You’re probably thinking, great—another boring old cab service. Wrong! Springs Cab strives to be the best at what they do—bustling people around a very spread out city. With reasonable rates, texting options, and around the clock availability, the Springs Cab service can get you where you need to go (except maybe up a mountain, you may have to tackle that on your own). Open 24 hours and bookable via call, text, or online booking.
6. MT Metro
Aren’t buses the best? You don’t have to worry about the woes of driving and you can even do something else while you travel like read or jam out to that new Justin Timberlake song. While not the most exciting mode of transport, it’s often easier in the Springs to get to trailheads and other beautiful natural spots without the hassle of parking your car. Multiple day passes available, busses run 5:30 AM – 9:45 PM.
5. Adventures Out West
Cowboy up, travelers! Get ready to hop in a super cool 4x4 jeep and zoom through the foothills.
