Itinerary

  • Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre

    Red Rocks Amphitheatre is an open-air amphitheatre built into a rock structure near Morrison, Colorado, 10 miles (16 km) west of Denver. There is a large, tilted, disc-shaped rock behind the stage, a huge vertical rock angled outwards from stage right, several large outcrops angled outwards from stage left and a seating area for up to 9,525 people in between. The Amphitheater has a long history of offering a variety of music venues to visitors of all ages.

    45 minutes

  • Evergreen (Pass By)

    Evergreen’s historic Main Street, bordered between a pink cliff wall of boulders and the rapidly flowing mountain waters of Bear Creek is compact, but full of irresistible fine arts, crafts and gifts worthy of any home, as well as bistros, coffee shops, boutiques, specialty shopping, and live music.

  • Evergreen Lake

    Nature lovers can always gain access to a pristine and breathtaking encounter with nature when going on a tour of Evergreen Lake. It offers stunning views that soothe the senses and invigorate the body with fresh air.

    10 minutes

  • Buffalo Bill Museum And Grave

    Buffalo Bill Cody remains the ultimate Old West icon. One of his final wishes was to be buried on Lookout Mountain above Denver, and his grave site at Lookout Mountain Park is free to visit. As part of the Denver Mountain Parks system, the park offers an engaging museum dedicated to the life and times of Buffalo Bill and his internationally known Wild West show.

    15 minutes

  • Lariat Loop National Scenic Byway (Pass By)

    A 40-mile stretch in the foothills west of Denver, Colorado, the Lariat Loop connects the communities of Golden, Morrison, Lookout Mountain and Evergreen, and features some of the area’s best historical and cultural attractions, not to mention spectacular mountain views and wildlife viewing opportunities.

  • Coors Brewery (Pass By)

    Pass by the Coors Brewery in Golden, Colorado, that is the largest single brewery facility in the world.

  • Golden (Pass By)

    Golden is a city and former gold rush town at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, in Colorado.

  • Lookout Mountain

    Downtown Denver, 12 miles to the east, can be seen clearly from the Lookout Mountain. It is known for its natural scenery! The summit is famous as the gravesite of William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cody and has several sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Its earliest known inhabitants were the Ute tribe of American Indians, who used the mountain as a lookout point upon the surrounding region.
