It is accessible by car, bus, plane, llama, flying squirrel, and horse cart; however, it is not accessible by kayak, canoe, cruise ship, or other water-based forms of transportation. Please be advised when planning your visit.
By Car:
Interstate 25 is the major highway into Colorado Springs, and CC is located just east of it. Take Exit #143 (Uintah Street) and go east (away from the mountains) to Cascade Avenue. Turn right (south) and you will be on campus. Read about visitor parking on campus.
From the Colorado Springs Airport:
Leave the airport on E. Drennan Road. Turn right (north) onto S. Powers Blvd. After about two miles, turn left onto E. Fountain Blvd. This will turn into US-24 W, and merges with I-25 after about four miles. Take I-25 north towards Denver.
From the Denver Airport:
Leave the airport via Pena Boulevard. Merge onto I-70 West. After two miles, merge onto I-225 heading south. That will take you to I-25; get on it heading south. (For information on shuttles from the Denver airport, visit groometransportation.com/colorado-springs/.)
