The Front Range
The Front Range is a collection of small towns, growing cities, a large metropolitan, a breathtaking national park, and a philosophy of spiritual and environmental health. Denver, a young city by most standards, is constantly evolving to acquire the trappings of a grown-up metropolis. In addition to great museums, a flourishing arts scene, and an ethnically diverse population, the city is home to a lively downtown full of restaurants, clubs, boutiques, and galleries. Rocky Mountain National Park is a preserve of forests, meadows, tundra, and ponds of over 400 square miles in which you can go hiking, biking, camping, or fishing. Estes Park is known as the “gateway” to the National park and is a picturesque town that has become a Colorado icon. With a plethora of outdoor activities such as mountain biking, four-wheel driving, golfing, scenic drives, boating at nearby lakes, and tramway rides to Prospect Mountain, 14,255-foot Longs Peak looming over the city, and other attractions like the Stanley Hotel, made famous as the setting for Stephen King’s horror tale The Shining, Estes Park has become a hub of activity all year long. Surrounded by the Roosevelt National Forest, Red Feather Lakes is a year-round playground that offers beautiful scenery, diverse wildlife, hiking trails, and cozy mountain retreats. Whitewater rafting, kayaking, and fishing opportunities can be found on the nearby Cache La Poudre River. The sister cities of Black Hawk and Central City are best known for their casinos. Drawing a crowd of curious visitors ready for poker, slots, and blackjack, it is a great way to have fun, relax, and enjoy a little time indoors. |
