Welcome to Colorado! In the 1800s people flocked to Colorado with one thing on their minds: gold. They traversed the state's vast grasslands, scaled its jagged peaks, and dug deep into its earth. Fortunes were made and fortunes were lost along the way. Though Colorado's gold is all but gone, the legacy of its early settlers lives on. Colorado's unique landscape has always been an integral part of the lifestyle it fosters. Now, instead of mining the mountains for gold, people ski them. Instead of cutting roads through the wilderness, people study and preserve it. Today, Colorado is as much a site of adventure as it ever was. The gold may have changed, but experience hasn't!

Come see Colorado's majestic Rocky Mountains, miles of rivers and forests, and abundant wildlife. Explore the history of the people who came before, from the Anasazi to gold miners to cowboys. Climb one of the state's 54 mountains that are more than 14,000 ft tall. See why Colorado has the best skiing in the world. 

Colorado's outdoor opportunities aren't the state's only world-class attractions. From the idyllic college town of Boulder, to Denver's acclaimed cultural institutions, Colorado is one of the most dynamic places in the country. Where do world-renowned research centers, restaurants, and shopping destinations sit side-by-side some of the nation's most beautiful landscapes? Only in Colorado. Come explore!
