Things To Do
Denver Botanic Gardens
Cheesman Park – smaller than the bigger city parks, but close to downtown. Good for walking. From the columns at the top of the park there is a good mountain view and the neighborhoods to the south are also lovely for walking.
Washington Park (“Wash Park” to locals) - close to where Brigitte and Ryan live
There are lots of shaded walkways, a nice peek at the foothills in many spots, especially by the lake at the southern end of the park. Lovely neighborhood to walk in as well along the east side of the park.
