See & Do
The Penrose/Florence area tends to be warmer than El Paso & Teller counties, so trails dry up earlier in the season for hiking and biking. In the fall, apple orchards and pumpkin patches open in Penrose. Florence is also the antique capital of Colorado, with dozens of antique stores and vendors within just a few blocks of each other.
