The Ultimate Colorado Travel Itinerary

From sandboarding to cave swings, follow this comprehensive itinerary to make the most of your time in Colorado.


The Ultimate Colorado Travel Itinerary

It seems like so many Colorado visitors just hit the usual suspects like Denver and Colorado Springs, which are both incredible places and included in this road trip itinerary, but there's a lot more to Colorado than just big cities.

Whether you go to explore the big cities or visit the mountains in Aspen or Vail to ski, Colorado has a lot to offer, within the San Luis Valley and surrounding areas like Great Sand Dunes National Park. Explore the western side of the state, stopping for plenty of adventures along the way.

With plenty of direct flights available, plan to fly in and out of Colorado's capital, Denver. Full of historic architecture, art, and amazing food, Denver is the ideal place to begin this loop road trip. Explore the preserved ghost mining town of St. Elmo to discover buildings and homes from the 1800s at an elevation of just under 10,000 feet. After driving through the mountains, head back to the city to check into your boutique accommodations for the evening.

Catbird Hotel is truly gifted when it comes to making a small space special. Although they have small rooms to work with, they get the most out of the space by elevating the bed and creating storage underneath. Even the windows act as a view into the city life during the day. At night, a projection screen comes down over the window for guests to watch TV and movies. There's even a little kitchenette area if there's something guests want to cook for themselves. It's really the perfect little overnight stay.

Another excellent hotel option in Denver is The Ramble Hotel. This property has a ton of charm and is in a great location just down the street from the Denver Market. It even holds one of the most iconic cocktail bars, Death & Co, right in the lobby. I had the most incredible cocktail there called the Jade Wave, made with Novo Fogo Cachaca, Arette Blanco Tequila, Matcha, Calpico, Lime, Nori, and Absinthe. It had a very mild briny flavor which was incredible, so different from anything I've ever tried before.
