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 Laramie (Medicine Bow National Forest & Wyoming Territorial Prison State Historic Site), Cheyenne (Cheyenne Depot Museum, Wyoming State Museum, &more) and Old Fall River Road (in Rocky Mountain National Park). The adventure continues: indulge your thirst for a good beer at New Belgium Brewing Company, contemplate the long history of The 1879 Avery House, view the masterpieces at Benson Park Sculpture Garden, and hike along Horsetooth Mountain Open Space.

Expect a daytime high around 53°F in November, and nighttime lows around 26°F. Finish your sightseeing early on the 9th (Sat) so you can travel back home.
