See the Best Fall Foliage in the U.S. From 14,000 Feet on this Magical Train Ride

"The Broadmoor Manitou and Pikes Peak Cog Railway offers a unique experience through Colorado's fall foliage. As one of only two cog railways in the U.S., it climbs more than 14,000 feet, providing extreme traction with its cog mechanism. The nine-mile journey traverses the scenic Pike National Forest, known for its golden yellow and red hues from the Rocky Mountain maples and Aspens, against the backdrop of ancient bristlecone pine trees. The ride also offers wildlife sightings, including elk, deer, and bighorn sheep. At the summit, a new visitor center provides insights into the mountain and railway history. Tickets start at $59 for adults, available at cograilway.com." - Travel + Leisure Editors
