What to expect

Take a memorable trip to the mountains west of Denver. This Mount Blue Sky tour is a combination of natural beauty and fascinating history. In addition to seeing the world from the top of Mount Blue Sky, you will enjoy stops at the Red Rocks Amphitheater, Echo Lake and the city of Idaho Springs.

Red Rocks Amphitheater is a musical venue surrounded by red sandstone rock formations. The natural acoustics of this location have made it a favorite venue of performers since it opened in 1941, and several live albums were recorded there. It has seen such music groups and singers as the Beatles, John Denver and U2. The next stop on the way to the summit is scenic Echo Lake. Here, you can enjoy the beauty of crisp mountain waters surrounded by evergreen trees. This area is a favorite spot for hiking and fishing in the summer months. You will also have the opportunity to explore the historic Echo Lake Lodge.

Having enjoyed a pleasant break, the tour continues along the Mount Blue Sky Scenic Byway until we reach the top of Mount Blue Sky. At approx. 4000m, this mountain is one of the tallest in the front range of the Rocky Mountains. On a clear day, you can see all the way back to Denver from this location. Of course, your main focus will be the views of the mountain range, alpine flowers and other local wildlife. You may spot Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep and mountain goats.
