Built around naturally carbonated mineral springs, Manitou Springs grew into a Colorado resort town at the foot of Pikes Peak in the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. Its mineral waters drew health-seekers from the late 19th century, and several public spring fountains still dispense waters with distinct mineral profiles. The compact historic centre retains the character of an old spa town, while Manitou Springs is also the departure point for the Pikes Peak Cog Railway, which climbs toward the mountain’s 4,302-metre summit.
