If you are looking to splurge and go shopping and get a high end meal...this is the place for you. In addition to the mall, many restaurants can be found just a couple blocks north. Many places will require reservations.

of time to travel. Requires having a vehicle. There are places close to Denver along the front range—but they can be extremely busy. Don’t hesitate with questions about other destinations.
Parc d'État de Castlewood Canyon
2989 CO-83Best hiking within a moderate distance from Denver. Requires purchasing a day pass for $8. We like starting at the Nott parking lot, which is the furthest East trailhead in the park.
