Best Time to Visit

Denver sits conveniently en route to the slopes of the Rocky Mountains, which makes it a must-visit for those making their way there during the winter. There is a multitude of events going on around Christmas time, which is an added incentive. For city exploration, the summers are best, with warm, yet not uncomfortably hot temperatures.
