8 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.

Get outdoors at Frisco Adventure Park and Off-Road Tours. Step off the beaten path and head to Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Museum and Children's Museum of Denver. Change things up with these side-trips from Denver: Breckenridge (Breckenridge Nordic Center, The O2 Lounge, &more) and Fraser (Colorado Adventure Park & Fraser Tubing Hill). Next up on the itinerary: test your team's savvy at popular escape rooms, pause for some serene contemplation at The International Church of Cannabis, take in nature's colorful creations at Washington Park, and admire the masterpieces at Denver Art Museum.
