This is the best half day mountain tour to get out of Denver and see the mountains without spending an entire day touring. These small group tours are designed to get you out to See, Learn and Explore not just drive past. This tour really highlights the best of our Denver Mountain Park system. Visit Red Rocks Park and amphitheater, then travel up into the mountains via Bear Creek Canyon to the quaint mountain town of Evergreen. Browse the local shops or enjoy a quick drink in the Saloon, winery, or local coffee shop. Witness beautiful Rocky Mountain vistas while climbing over a beautiful mountain pass to Echo Lake at 10,600 ft. Stroll around this beautiful glacial lake sitting at the base of 14,256 foot Mt. Blue Sky and enjoy the mountain scenery. Travel by historic Genesee Mountain Park while viewing herds of Buffalo and Elk on your way back into Denver. *Wildlife viewing not guaranteed.

A top shelf tour and our tour guide Hans was outstanding! Knowledgeable, informative, funny, and a great guy to tell us all about our tour. He couldn’t have been nicer and told us about restaurants, other attractions in the area and any other topics that came up. Highly recommend this tour and hope you get a chance to have Hans lead you on a tour.

It was a great trip! The scenery at Red Rocks and Echo Lake was stunning—breathtaking views all around. It’s worth going, a perfect way to spend half a day surrounded by nature, and highly recommended!
