Cheap Flights To Colorado Starting at $29

In Colorado, you can tour the handcrafted Bishop's Castle in the Wet Mountain Valley, snake through single-track trails in Crestone, ski fresh powder in the Arapaho Basin, pick through ancient cliff-side dwellings in Mesa Verde, watch the big game at Sports Authority Field or enjoy a weekend at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs. This is Rocky Mountain magic, the destination of choice for almost 65 million travelers every year.

Getting Around

Denver International Airport (DEN) is the epicenter of intrastate transportation. Interstate 70 bisects the state east-west; Interstate 25 cuts the land north-south. At their intersection is Denver. To access the semi-arid western half of the state, you can fly into Durango-La Plata County Airport (DRO) or Grand Junction Regional Airport (GJT). From there, you can rent a four-wheel drive vehicle and explore the San Juan Skyway and old abandoned mining towns.

Hints and Tips

Denver is the cultural hotbed of Colorado, boasting a number of museums performing arts venues and world-class restaurants such as Pepper Tree. A few hour's drive from downtown Denver is the Snowmass Ski Resort, Great Sand Dunes National Park and Garden of the Gods. Hidden gems include Thunder Mountain Raceway and New River Gorge Class IV rafting. Plan ahead; Colorado weather changes by the minute and by the region. Choose hotels located in local "sunbelts" rather than "snowbelts."
