Ida - one of our favorite hikes in RMNP. *Enjoy lunch and shopping in Estes Park

Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre

While a favorite location for concerts in the Denver-area, there is also lots of hiking in the area. Run the stairs of the amphitheater, hike the surrounding trails, or just walk around and enjoy the beautiful red rocks and view of the Denver Metro.

Angelo's Taverna - Littleton

Our favorite Italian restaurant! Menu favorites: the Chile Relleno Raviolil (Caitlin) or Lobster Gnocchi (Mickey). End your meal with in-house made lemoncello! Then head next door to the Carboy Winery.

Rose all day! 🌹🍷

Denver Beer Co Platte Street

A favorite brewery! Try the Princess Yum Yum (Caitlin) or the Incredible Pedal (Mickey) or a beer flight to test out the seasonal flavors.

Machete Tequila + Tacos

Street tacos and margaritas... need we say more?! (Get the Kona Margarita)

River North Art District

Walk the streets of RiNo (well, the alleys) to see amazing street art performed by local Denver artists. Stop at Stem Ciders for a hard cider, Infinite Monkey Theorem for a glass of wine, or one of the MANY breweries in the neighborhood. Can't decide what to eat? Denver Central Market has a little bit of everything.

William Frederick Hayden Park

A nearby-area for some lighter hiking. A frequent hike/trail run for Milo.

St Mary's Glacier Trailhead

Another beautiful hike within about 60 minutes of Littleton, CO. Stop in Idaho Springs after hiking for a beer at Tommy Knockers Brewery or lunch at Beu Joe's Mountain Pizza!

Boulder

Looking for a day trip? Boulder, CO is probably what you envisioned Colorado to be all about. Hike the Flatirons, shop Pearl Street, and eat lunch at Bar Taco (or have a margarita at the Rio!).

Glenwood Springs

If you are planning to head west after the wedding, Glenwood Springs is one of our favorite mountain towns. Unique locations: soak at Iron Mountain Hot Springs, hike Hanging Lake (reservations required), or explore the adventure/theme park up on a mountain cliff.

Snooze, an A.M. Eatery

A breakfast favorite - you can't go wrong with anything on the menu (but get the pancake flight).

Stem Ciders

A hard cidery that is a family favorite.

Panorama Point Trail Head

A beautiful hike not too far from Littleton (Corwina Mountain Park).

Black Hawk

Black Hawk, CO is the Las Vegas of Colorado - casinos, casinos, casinos. If you're wanting to test your luck at the slots, take a day trip (or spend the night at the Ameristar) to Black Hawk.

Denver Museum of Nature & Science

Rainy day and looking for an indoor activity? The Nature & Science Museum is a family favorite (we were members when we lived on the east side of Denver).

Las Delicias Uptown

A Mexican food favorite - the queso dip, a blue margarita and a crispy chile relleno are 💯. Then go across the street to D Bar for dessert (reservation recommended).

D Bar Desserts

Dessert. Martinis. Enough said. Reservations needed or expect a 30+ min wait.
