Highlights

Please Note: A minimum of 2 people is required for this tour to run. Experience the best of Colorado in a single unforgettable day. We'll begin with a guided nature hike through the world-famous Red Rocks Park, where towering red sandstone formations frame sweeping views of the Front Range. Along the trail, learn about local wildlife, geology, and the natural history that makes this area one of the state’s true treasures. From there, enjoy a scenic mountain drive into the high country as we make our way to a quiet subalpine lake—the perfect setting for a peaceful, freshly prepared picnic lunch surrounded by pines, rugged peaks, and crisp alpine air. After lunch, we’ll continue to the historic mining town of Idaho Springs for a rejuvenating 2-hour soak at Indian Hot Springs, one of Colorado’s most iconic thermal pools.

About Denver

Denver, the Mile High City, is Colorado's capital on the plains at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, with museums, breweries and the Red Rocks amphitheatre.

Denver stands one mile above sea level on the high plains, with the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains filling the western horizon. It began as a gold-rush town in 1858 and grew with railways and mining. Union Station, a restored rail hall, anchors the lower downtown, and the Colorado State Capitol has a step on its west side marked as one mile above sea level.
