Colorado contains most of the southern Rocky Mountains and is named for the powerful river that rushes through it. The state has a myriad of settings, from alpine meadows, deep canyons, plateaus and mesas to deserts and dunes. Here are the fun things to do in Colorado.
The Royal Gorge Bridge
The Royal Gorge Bridge, about two hours from Denver, is one of the top things to do in Colorado for jaw-dropping views that are sure to test your tolerance for heights. The Royal Gorge Bridge is one of the highest suspension bridges in the world. The bridge is more than 1,000 feet long and stands 956 feet above the Arkansas River in Canon City.Top of FormBottom of Form
Rocky Mountain National Park Bottom of Form
Rocky Mountain National Park is one of the most must-see destinations in Colorado. It’s among the top five most visited national parks in the U.S. every year, Millions of people come to Rocky Mountain National Park every year, and it’s not hard to understand why. There’s so much to latch onto, from the gorgeous peaks to the incredible animal life, so it’s important to know what to do there before your visit. The advance prep will be well worth it when you’re exploring Rocky Mountain National Park’s 300-plus miles of hiking trails, the crystal clear lakes, and the famous Trail Ridge Road. Elk, bighorn sheep, moose, otters, and mule deer are just some of the incredible wildlife you’ll see here.
Hanging Lake
Even though you can’t swim (or even dip a body part) in the water, the hike to Hanging Lake is one of the most popular things to do in Colorado. It’s located about 10 miles from Glenwood Springs in the Glenwood Canyon, and pictures don’t do the turquoise-colored waters justice. The climb to the lake and cascading waterfall isn’t particularly easy—it’s a steep, uphill one-mile hike—but the views are definitely worth it.

科罗拉多州包含了大部分南部的落基山脉,因急流而得名。这个州有无数的地貌,从高山草原、深谷、高原、平顶山到沙漠和沙丘。以下是在科罗拉多州最值得去做的事情。
皇家峡谷大桥
距离丹佛两小时车程的皇家峡谷大桥是科罗拉多州最受欢迎的景点之一,这里令人瞠目的景色肯定会考验你对于高度的忍耐力。皇家峡谷大桥是世界上最高的悬索桥之一。这座桥长1000英尺,高956英尺,位于卡农市的阿肯色河上。
落基山国家公园
落基山国家公园是科罗拉多州最不容错过的景点之一。它是美国游客最多的五个国家公园之一。每年都有数百万人来到落基山国家公园,其原因并不难理解。从壮丽的山峰到令人难以置信的动物,有很多东西可以让你流连忘返,所以在你访问之前,知道去那里做什么是很重要的。当你在探索落基山国家公园300多英里的徒步旅行路线、清澈的湖泊和著名的山脊路时,提前的准备是非常值得的。麋鹿、大角羊、驼鹿、水獭和骡鹿都是你在这里看到的一些令人难以置信的野生动物。
悬空湖
即使你不能在水里游泳(甚至不能把身体的一部分浸在水里),徒步到悬空湖是科罗拉多州最受欢迎的活动之一。它距离格伦伍德峡谷的格伦伍德泉约10英里,从照片上看,这片绿松石色的水域并不真实。爬上湖和瀑布并不是特别容易——这是一个陡峭的,一英里的上坡徒步——但风景绝对值得。
