Convenience and outdoor amenities
Tall grey rock formations serve as the centerpiece in northern Colorado Springs, signaling an arrival to Pulpit Rock. The neighborhood shares a name with this famous landmark, with homes circling the rock and branching out on all sides. While the rock may be an attention grabber, Pulpit Rock’s convenient location tends to seal the deal for new neighbors. Students attending the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs, can live close to campus, and direct access to Nevada Avenue and Interstate 25 gives military families an easy commute to Fort Carson. Meanwhile, University Village checks the convenience box for all residents with shopping options. People will drive here from all parts of Eastern Colorado Springs to find the stores they’re looking for, but Pulpit Rock residents only live a mile or two away. "It's very scenic and beautiful," says Brent Patterson, Real Estate Broker with eXp Realty. "There's a lot of hiking and biking around and it's in a central hub of a lot of activity on Academy Boulevard. You also have quick access to Interstate 25.”

Austin Bluff Open Space
Though Pulpit Rock Park is the neighborhood’s centerpiece, it’s also a popular Colorado Springs hiking destination. Neighbors often hike the 4-mile trail that loops around the base of the rock, while visitors trek 1.5 miles to the summit. Pulpit Rock is a fraction of the nearly 600-acre Austin Bluff Open Space, which has historical sandstone and mudstone rocks. These iconic sights formed over 60 million years ago, around the same time as the Rocky Mountains. There are 10 miles of designated multi-use trails with a plethora of wildlife.
University Village and other nearby conveniences
University Village serves as a one-stop-shop for groceries, errands and a bite to eat. Hop from one big box retailer to another and then grab groceries from Costco or Trader Joe’s. University Village is also home to Cowboy Star, a fine-dining local restaurant known for its hand-cut steaks. For a casual option, head to Dublin House Sports Bar and Grill. This neighborhood watering hole is located along Academy Boulevard, another main road, and is often filled with fellow locals watching sports games while playing pool and indulging in burgers, fries and rail drinks.
