Travel Tips & Advice for Colorado

Colorado Activities

Outdoor enthusiast will love a holiday to Colorado! The rugged wilderness of this state tempts travellers to discover the great outdoors. There’s countless hiking and biking trails, catering to all fitness levels. Big-name luxury ski resorts such as Aspen are ‘top ticket’ destinations for skiing and snowboarding in the winter and rock climbers will find plenty of challenges in the national parks. Feeling musical? Catch a concert at the Red Rock Amphitheatre.

Colorado Food & Drink

Eat out in Colorado and you’ll find that meat tops many menus from freshly caught trout and bison burgers to grilled steak served with a side of potatoes. A Colorado classic, particularly in the southern part of the state, is green chilli – often used as a topping on burgers, burritos… whatever you feel like! And when you’ve worked up a thirst, you can’t go wrong with a cold glass of award-winning craft beer.

Colorado Attractions

History and culture collide in Colorado. High of many travellers ‘to see’ list are the cliff dwellings at Mesa Verde – but we recommend stopping by the lesser-visited Ute Mountain tribal park where hundreds are wall paintings, petroglyphs and cliff dwellings await. Learn about ‘cowboy culture’ at the Museum of the American Cowboy in Colorado Springs, discover why Denver has a growing reputation as an arts hub and take a dip in one of the many hot springs found around the state.
