Visit Boulder

A laid-back lifestyle, breathtaking views of the Flatirons and Rocky Mountains and celebrated culinary offerings are just a few reasons that make Boulder one of Colorado’s most beloved cities.

Nestled Between the Mountains and Reality

Choose from a superb lineup of outdoor adventures, from hiking and mountain and road biking to stand-up paddleboarding and rock climbing. Designated “America’s Foodiest Town” by Bon Appétit, Boulder teems with critically acclaimed restaurants — many of which serve up dishes featuring meat and produce sourced from Boulder County’s hundreds of farms.

The energetic community also has a vibrant downtown and shopping districts that bustle with inviting locally owned businesses and a bounty of crowd-pleasing family attractions.
