Very entertaining ride up, saw some deer and lots of yellow-bellied marmots. Gorgeous views, especially at the summit!! If you go: be sure and bring a bottle of water, warm clothing, and make a.reservation as the rail cars fill quickly, especially in the summer! It is darn cold and windy at 14,113 feet and neglecting to wear the proper attire... More

Really friendly knowledgeable staff. Great scenery and local history. Remember to take warm clothes!!! Amazing doughnut and hot chocolate at the top, a must have.

Easy way to spend a few hours with amazing scenery. Easy to meet and chat with others - might be tough with little kids. Gift shop is a bit pricey.

My boyfriend and I went up on the railway in September. It was a lot of fun and the tour guides shared a lot of interesting facts. It was even one of those days when snow made it's way in. Lots of fun.

Don't miss this ride if you want to see the full Monty! It's nice to sit back and relax instead of making the car drive up to the top of Pikes Peak. It's safe and fun with beautiful scenery. Don't miss it!
