Excursions from Denver
==================
Estes Park
Surrounded by the
Rocky Mountain National Park and
Roosevelt National Forest, the village of Estes Park has spectacular mountain scenery at every turn.
Fishing, biking, horseback riding, river rafting, hunting, hiking and skiing are all possibilities in Estes Park, which is 103km (64 miles) northwest of Denver.
Wildlife tours in the surrounding Rocky Mountain National Park offer the chance to see elk, moose, marmots, pikas, coyotes and big horn sheep.
Georgetown
Lying in a spectacular mountain valley, 72km (45 miles) west of Denver, Georgetown is a historic mining town maintained and restored in turn-of-the-century style.
The town's highlight in summer is the steam-powered
Georgetown Loop Railroad, which gives you an exceptional opportunity to see the
Clear Creek Valley area. The train curves down a mountain ledge covering 183m (600ft). In its course, the train crosses over three bridges, including the 30m (100ft)
Devil's Gate Bridge. There's also the option to take a walking tour of the
Lebanon Silver Mine, which is the railway's halfway
point.
From Georgetown, the famous Rocky Mountain National Park is a short drive away on the
I-40.
