A great local pizza place, with awesome mountain views from their rooftop patio! Maddy's recommendation: Margherita Stephan's recommendation: The Hunter
Good beers (and food trucks) with great views of downtown Denver, Sloan's Lake, and the Front Range mountains from their rooftop!
Go for the views without the hike as you can drive all the way to the top of Lookout Mountain. The spot includes Buffalo Bill's grave and overlooks the city of Golden.
A good park for a hike and a view! Mount Falcon has a number of different trails, varying in length, elevation, and difficulty. We recommend the West Trailhead! It's also where we got our engagement pictures taken!
Red Rocks is an amazing place to see a concert but even during the day it's worth a visit. There are hiking trails around the park but you can also drive pretty close to the amphitheater entrance if that's more your speed.
Our favorite taco spot in Denver, with great margaritas too! Maddy's recommendation: Spicy Tuna Stephan's recommendation: Pollo Agave
