Spend Time Along The South Platte River
If you are looking for some outdoor activities in Denver, spend a day on the river. Whether you like swimming or kayaking, the South Platte River makes a great activity destination in Denver.
The section of the South Platte River Trail follows the river and is surrounded by lush greenery and riverside wildlife. If fishing sounds good, Overland Pond Park is a popular fishing spot that you can reach on the trail.

Craft Beer And Street Art Tours
Denver is often referred to as the “Napa Valley of Beer.” With over 150 breweries in the metropolitan area, the city boasts one of the largest concentrations of craft breweries in the United States. A craft beer tour will not only allow you to sample a diverse array of brews but also provide insights into the brewing process, the evolution of Denver’s beer scene, and the passion and creativity behind each pint.
Combining a beer tour with a street art tour is a great way to immerse in Denver culture. As you stroll from one venue to another, you can savor the flavors of Denver’s craft beers while soaking in the visuals of its urban masterpieces. This pairing captures the essence of the city’s innovative and creative spirit.

The city’s street art, particularly in neighborhoods like RiNo (River North Art District), are adorned with striking murals and graffiti that transform urban walls into canvases. This Tour combines the two perfectly.

Colorado State Capitol
The State Capitol is the center of Colorado’s political history and power. Located at the top of Capitol Hill, the Colorado State Capitol is also beautiful to look at. The architecture is designed to mimic the State Capitol in Washington DC, and the building is cut from eye-catching white granite.
As a fancy finish, a gold dome was added to the building in 1908 to commemorate the gold rush. Interestingly, the State Capitol steps are also engraved with Denver’s elevation – (One Mile Above Sea Level) creating the nickname ‘mile-high city’ as the thirteenth step is a mile above sea level.

Visitors can picnic outside and admire the building’s exterior or you can head inside for a guided tour. Check the website for details.
