Since 1891, the world's highest cog railroad has been chugging tourists up Pikes Peak to its summit of 14,110 feet. The three hour and ten minute trip, which includes 30 minutes on the summit, winds through stands of pine and aspen before ascending above treeline and offering stunning views of Colorado. The air is cool on top so pack an extra jacket. Box lunches are available by request.
