All About Colorado
Wildflowers in spring, rushing rapids in summer, forests of golden aspens in fall, and the snowy wonderland that is winter - Colorado vacations offer something different in every season. The one constant through it all is its unlimited opportunities to reconnect with the Great Outdoors.
Home to the Continental Divide, Colorado is a true western state, filled with old ghost towns, silver mining towns, dude ranches, hot springs, and scenic historic railroads. But its history goes back even further to the times when Native American cliff dwellings thrived in Mesa Verde, and even before that when dinosaurs roamed.
With 53 mountain peaks over 14,000 feet high, the Rocky Mountain splendor provides a natural playground of possibilities for those who like to stay active. Fly fishing, mountain biking, and hiking are just as popular as skiing, snow-shoeing, and sleigh rides, all centered around resorts popular with those on Colorado vacation packages, including, Vail, Winter Park, Telluride, Aspen, Crested Butte, and Steamboat.
The state capital of Denver, the Mile High City, offers microbreweries, farmer's markets, and art galleries. It lies in easy reach of the college town of Boulder, Fort Collins, and the marvels of Rocky Mountain National Park.
