10 days in Denver Itinerary

Aptly nicknamed the "Mile-High City," Denver sits at an altitude of 1,600 m (5,280 ft) above sea level, located right where the Great Plains give way to the Rocky Mountains.

Escape the urban bustle at Frisco Adventure Park and Coca-Cola Tubing Hill. Discover out-of-the-way places like Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey Tour and Breckenridge Nordic Center. Venture out of the city with trips to Breckenridge (Peak 9, Broken Compass Brewery & Tap House, &more), Fraser Tubing Hill (in Fraser) and Grand Z Casino Hotel (in Central City). Dedicate the 17th (Thu) to wine at some of the top wineries in the area. And it doesn't end there: see the interesting displays at Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Museum, admire the natural beauty at Hudson Gardens - Free, do a tasting at Balistreri Vineyards, and admire the masterpieces at Clyfford Still Museum.
