3 days in Fort Collins Itinerary

Called vibrant, eclectic and authentic, Fort Collins tops “best of” lists year after year thanks to its myriad of cultural opportunities.

And it doesn't end there: sample the tasty concoctions at New Belgium Brewing Company, look for gifts at Vern's Toffee House, explore the activities along Cache La Poudre River, and get engrossed in the history at Totally 80's Pizza & Museum.
