Mount EVANS Colorado | #1 Thing to do in Denver

Mount Evans is the #1 thing to do in and around Denver, Colorado according to TripAdvisor. And for good reason, not only do you get there by way of North America's highest paved road but along the way, you will discover stunning Echo Lake along with many vistas, hikes, wildlife such as mountain goats, and countless photo-ops.

In our family vlog we are not only hiking up to the top of the infamous Colorado 14er mountain but are also going to find mountain goats and their kids and visit the Castle in the Sky which used to be the world's highest structure!

This is a great thing to do for the whole family as a summer day trip to escape the heat of The Foothills and to get to see a totally different side of Colorado. If you're out of town, make sure to give yourself a few days to get used to the general altitude of CO before endeavoring on this 14er. Also, make sure to bring and drink plenty of water!

The Meyer–Womble Observatory which used to be the highest optical/infrared observatory in the world until 2001, can be seen from the top. It is run by the University of Denver but is currently being decommissioned due to a lack of funding and interest.
