8 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 Deadman Lookout (in Red Feather Lakes), Chapel on the Rock (in Allenspark) and Rocky Mountain National Park (Sky Pond, Bear Lake, &more). There's still lots to do: hike along Horsetooth Mountain Open Space, indulge your thirst for a good beer at Odell Brewing Company, engage your brain at Fort Collins Museum of Discovery, and contemplate the waterfront views at Cache La Poudre River.
