The City and County of Denver is the most populous city and the capital of the State of Colorado. Denver is an energetic city that offers urban adventure and abundant outdoor activities. With numerous distinctive neighborhoods, including a vibrant downtown and historic district, Denver offers an array of exciting and unique experiences. Located near at the foot of the Rocky Mountains the city provides breathtaking views and basks in 300 days of sunshine annually.

In addition to the parks within Denver itself, the city acquired land for mountain parks starting in the 1910s. Over the years, Denver has acquired, built and maintained around 40,000 acres of mountain parks, the most famous being Red Rocks Park, which is known just as much for its scenery as its musical history revolving around the Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Denver also owns the Winter Park Resort ski area in Grand County, 60 miles west of Denver.
