Best Time to Visit

Denver sits conveniently atop the route to the Rocky Mountains, making it a must-visit during the winter when the snow turns the area into a glistening marvel. There is a multitude of events going on around Christmas time as is an added incentive. For city exploration, the summers are best, with warm, yet not uncomfortably hot temperatures.
