Great hikes in Boulder
Starting out in “mom mode” here: be bear aware, wear sunscreen, and remember to hydrate hydrate hydrate esp if you’re not used to our altitude! We have some water bottles you can use in the cupboard. And a great rule of thumb is to hike in the morning, so you miss afternoon showers with attendant ⚡️
A previous guest mentioned that “a Boulder trail moderate isn’t flatland moderate!” So we are dutifully passing that along for your consideration :) Hiking books on entry table describe the hikes.

This is one of one favorite family hikes! A decent amount of altitude gain so take lots of water!

This is not really a hike! But if you just feel like walking around the block-ish, this park is a perfectly good destination :)
Admiral Arleigh A. Burke Park

This park has some gentle / flatter trails if you’re not wanting to have too much altitude gain. Stunning views & a must-see destination for rock-climbers. Also love the hike (Rattlesnake Gulch) that includes the ruins of the Crags Hotel & continental divide vista.

If you want to head a bit more into the mountains, it’s a beautiful drive up the canyon and a cool funky town to spend a day in. The Carousel of Happiness is … happy!

Liquor stores
Colorado limits what alcohol you can buy in grocery stores, so if you’re looking for something other than beer, you’re probably going to need to head to a liquor store.
Locally owned but HUGE liquor store with basically anything you could want!
