We construct solutions of an Einstein-Yang-Mills system including a cosmological constant in 4+n space-time dimensions, where the n-dimensional manifold associated with the extra dimensions is taken to be Ricci flat. Assuming the matter and metric fields to be independent of the n extra coordinates, a spherical symmetric Ansatz for the fields leads to a set of coupled ordinary differential equations. We find that for n > 1 only solutions with either one non-zero Higgs field or with all Higgs fields constant and zero gauge fields exist. We give the analytic solutions available in this model. These are ``embedded'' abelian solutions with a diverging size of the manifold associated with the extra n dimensions. Depending on the choice of parameters, these latter solutions either represent naked singularities or they possess a single horizon. We also present solutions of the effective 4-dimensional Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs-dilaton model, where the higher dimensional cosmological constant induces a Liouville-type potential. The solutions are non-abelian solutions with diverging Higgs fields, which exist only up to a maximal value of the cosmological constant.
