Great hiking and climbing right in Boulder.
Rocky Mountain National Park is less than 1 hour away from Boulder. You'll need to reserve an entry permit on May 1st or the night before the desired entry date to get into the main part of the park. However, there are other great hiking options outside of the main entry areas and Estes Park is an adorable mountain town with lots of shops and restaurants.
Golden is an adorable old mining town less than 1 hour from Boulder. Hike, shop, or even visit the Coors Factory (reservations required).
