Huge slanting slabs of sandstone make up the “Flat Irons” and create the breathtaking background for the city of Boulder, Colorado. (30 minutes NW of Denver) Depending on your mood you can hang around on the well-manicured trails that weave around the foothills — @colorado_chautauqua — or venture upwards until you are “boulder”ing over the irons themselves. If you are in for the latter, we recommend the First and Second Flatirons loop which you can follow on @alltrails — https://bit.ly/3k1dKuM— it offers amazing views from the top looking back over the entire city below, well worth the climb!
Working up a sweat probably justifies stopping by the @chautauquageneralstore for some ice cream after. 🍦
The city of Boulder has a fun college-town vibe, with @cuboulder at its heart. #gobuffalos 🦬
Random fact: No matter how many times we come, we somehow always end up back at @thesinkboulder for lunch. 🍕
