Things To Do

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Just 20 minutes outside of Denver, Red Rocks Ampitheatre will be open during the day for hikes and incredible views.

Mount Evans

Very simply, this is a wonderful place to visit. On a clear day you see all over Colorado. It's a beautiful drive and an easy way to see one of the 14ers. We suggest to visit early in the morning as limited parking fills up quickly.

St. Mary's Glacier

This is one of our favorite hikes! The hike to St. Mary's Glacier is a short one and includes a beautiful lake that is fed by the glacier. Beautiful views! We recommend checking out the charming town of Idaho Springs on your way back.

Day hikes near Denver

Golden is a short drive from Denver with plenty to see and lots of trails to hike.

City of Boulder Open Space & Mountain Parks

Beautiful parks with great hikes in Boulder! This has trails that lead to the Flatirons and the Royal Arch. When finished, check out the shops and food on Pearl Street!

BRUNCH!!!

Denver has a huge brunch scene and we think you folks should take full advantage! If you go during the weekend, prepare to be put on a waitlist.. we think its worth it! Here are some of our favorites to check out (in no particular order) - Table 6, Call, Snooze, Bacon Social House, Ophelia's, Rosenberg's Bagels, Sassafrass, Denver Biscuit Company, Port Side, Jelly Cafe, City O'city, Lola, The Stowaway & Onefold. We clearly love brunch.

Rockies Baseball at Coors Field

The Rockies will be out of town this weekend but if you’re sticking around a couple days the Cubs will be in town 6/10-6/12. Day games are fun, but don't sit in the sun sections on the first base side. The rooftop has the best views and are fun, cheap seats!

Denver Union Station

Train station for the airport train, Union Station hosts bars and restaurants. The outdoor shopping district on 16th Street is walking distance.

Beer Beer Beer We love beer and there is no shortage of breweries in Denver. Some of our favorites are Black Shirt Brewing, Our Mutual Friend, Epic, 14er, 10 barrel, Wynkoop, Great Divide, Denver Beer Co, Ratio, O’Dell and Joyride!

The Denver Central Market

This food hall sits right in the middle of the Rino neighborhood, and has a nice variety of stuff to choose from (pizza, sandwiches, seafood, sandwiches, and ice cream, to name a few), as well a full bar with plenty of seating. It’s a nice spot to grab a drink and snack and hang around for a bit during the day.
