Concert at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison

legacy_slideshow_city_landing_page_192

Just outside Morrison rests the high-end, critic-approved, wild-game establishment known as <a href="http://www.colorado.com/fine-dining/fort-restaurant">The Fort</a>. A replica of <a href="/historic-forts-homes/bents-old-fort-national-historic-site">Bent's Old Fort</a>, the adobe is a celebration of the West; decor and Southwestern foods are the standard, as are quality wines and decadent desserts.
Near town, a bike path skirts Bear Creek and leads to <a href="https://www.colorado.com/sup-stand-paddle/rocky-mountain-paddleboard-bear-creek-lake-park">Bear Creek Lake Park</a>, where you'll find an extensive trail system, reservoir and lakes for kayaking and SUPing. <a href="http://www.colorado.com/archeological-site/dinosaur-ridge">Dinosaur Ridge</a> is a must-see for geology or archaeology buffs; exposed dinosaur prints are perfectly entombed in sandstone all over this self-guided tour. The visitor center in Morrison may help you start the journey, and more bones are on display at the <a href="http://www.colorado.com/museum/morrison-natural-history-museum">Morrison Natural History Museum</a>.
During the warm-weather months, the town’s <a href="http://www.bandimere.com/">Bandimere Speedway</a> hosts a variety of track events on its 1/4-mile drag strip, including National Hot Rod Association races.
Morrison is also a stop on the <a href="https://www.colorado.com/byways/lariat-loop">Lariat Loop National Scenic Byway</a>, a 40-mile scenic byway established in the early 1920s to help locals experience the beautiful mountain landscapes near the Denver metro area.
