Transportation & Location

Getting Around Town

The Tri-Lakes area is located along the I-25 corridor, within an easy commute to Colorado Springs and Denver. The town of Monument is situated on the west side of I-25, Woodmoor on the east, Palmer Lake three miles northwest of Monument on Highway 105, Gleneagle south and a little east of Monument on I-25, and Black Forest east of the interstate on Highway 105.

Colorado Springs Airport (COS), a 16-gate terminal facility spanning 280,000 square feet, is a 30-minute drive south of the Tri-Lakes region. Acting as a gateway to southern Colorado, the airport serves as the first impression for thousands of visitors yearly, offering a breathtaking view of Pikes Peak and a taste of Colorado hospitality. Travelers can get to and from Colorado Springs with ease.

COS boasts multiple carriers that offer varied routes to virtually all cities in North America and major cities worldwide. This ultimately allows the airport to provide convenient flight schedules and competitive airfares. The airport handles around 110 arrivals and departures per day and is served by nine airlines. COS has non-stop service to 16 U.S. cities, as well as convenient connecting flights, and handles over two million passengers per year.

Denver International Airport, located an easy one-hour drive north and often called DIA, is 52 square miles by land, the largest international airport in the United States, the third largest international airport in the world and the third busiest airport in the U.S. Runway 16R/34L is the longest public-use runway in the U.S. DIA is served by most major airlines and superior charter services, providing nonstop daily flights to more than 130 destinations in the U.S. and beyond. In 2007, Denver International Airport was the 11th busiest airport in the world by passenger traffic with over 49 million passengers.
