It also works well for visitors planning to sightsee across Denver, since numerous museums, historic sites, and entertainment venues are all within about a 20-minute radius.
Travel tips
Because major Denver attractions like Coors Field, Larimer Square, and the Denver Art Museum sit roughly 15-18km away, guests should plan on driving or using rideshare for downtown excursions rather than expecting a short walk.
