Activities
You won’t fall short of activities when it comes to Colorado. It is such an outdoors place, that you’ll never be left looking for things to do.

If you do go in the winter, there are plenty of activities for you to do. The rocky mountains become thick with snow meaning you could try your hand at dog sledging, which seems to be a firm favourite, or even cross country skiing to make sure you see plenty of the sights.

The Fort restaurant is something a little more unique, and the dining experience you’ll have there is amazing.

The accommodation is something that a lot of you are going to love. All up and down the state there is a range of different accommodation types to choose from. From lodges, to beautiful hotels, you truly will be spoilt for choice. Just take the Leland House and Rochester Hotel as a prime example.

If you want something a little more posh, you’re going to have to pay the extra bucks, just like you would anywhere.
Relaxation
There’s plenty of national parks and nature walks if you’re looking for something a little more relaxed. There’s also some really lovely spa breaks that you could try your hand at around the state. Sometimes it is nice to get pampered whilst you’re away. So if you’ve just had a long walk around a nature trail, why not go to a spa and have a lovely massage to melt any of your troubles away.
