6 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.

Your day by day itinerary now includes Wild Basin Area, Mills Lake and Sky Pond. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at The Farm at Lee Martinez Park and Many Parks Curve Overlook. Escape the urban bustle at Cathy Fromme Prairie Natural Area and Reservoir Ridge Natural Area. Venture out of the city with trips to Rocky Mountain National Park (Sheep Lakes, Deer Mountain, &more). There's still lots to do: look for all kinds of wild species at Fossil Creek Reservoir Natural Area, explore the activities along Horsetooth Reservoir, play a few rounds at Collindale Golf Course, and immerse yourself in nature at Lory State Park.
