5 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.

Venture out of the city with trips to Rocky Mountain National Park (Sprague Lake, Bear Lake, &more) and Chapel on the Rock (in Allenspark). There's much more to do: hike along Horsetooth Mountain Open Space, go on a hair-raising tour with a ghost and vampire tour, look for gifts at Vern's Toffee House, and sample the tasty concoctions at New Belgium Brewing Company.
