7 days in Denver Itinerary

Aptly nicknamed the "Mile-High City," Denver sits at an altitude of 1,600 m (5,280 ft) above sea level, located right where the Great Plains give way to the Rocky Mountains.

Step out of the city life by going to Frisco Adventure Park and Flagstaff Mountain. Step off the beaten path and head to Forney Museum of Transportation and Balistreri Vineyards. Explore the numerous day-trip ideas around Denver: Georgetown Firefighting Museum (in Georgetown), Flatirons (in Boulder) and Breckenridge (Blue River Sports & Peak 9). Dedicate the 22nd (Fri) to wine at some of the top wineries in the area. The adventure continues: examine the collection at Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Museum, explore the world behind art at Clyfford Still Museum, learn and have fun at Children's Museum of Denver, and grab your bike and head to Cherry Creek Trail.
