Denver Vacation & Tourism Guide
photo by Bob&Anita
Denver is magnificent, though geographically isolated, Concealed from the west by bold foothills and towering 14,000-foot Rocky Mountain peaks, and protected to the east by an expansive and high desert terrain, it is known for world-class skiing and biking, serene hiking and intense rock climbing. The entertainment, shopping, cultural, sports and recreation capital of the Rocky Mountain West, it is a fabulous city to visit and to experience in its many facets. Whether you are looking for total relaxation, intense sporting challenges, or something in between, Denver is a place to find fulfillment and renewed energy for a visit or for a lifetime.
