The Best of NileGuide
- Much of Boulder’s appeal comes from its myriad outdoor activities, including hiking, climbing, and biking. And with skiing so close by, Boulder is a mecca for all outdoor enthusiasts. But you need not be a world-class athlete to enjoy Boulder’s natural wonders. Boulder’s beauty can just as easily be enjoyed by taking a stroll along the Boulder Creek path as it can atop of one of the area’s many “14ers”—peaks over 14,000 feet. With all these outdoor activities so close by, there’s no excuse not to get back to nature.
