Denver Gay and Lesbian Travel Tips

By Matt Link

  • Take steps to let your body acclimate to Denver's high elevation. Try to limit intense activities during your first day, and consume less alcohol than normal. Drink plenty of water to protect against dehydration. And remember that the sun's rays are more intense here, so use that sunscreen!
  • With the Rockies directly to the west of the city, locals will give directions assuming you know which way is north, south, and east. Just remember that the mountains lie to the west, and you'll stay on course.
  • Respect the environment. Denver residents take great pride in the natural beauty that surrounds their city, and they don't tolerate visitors who disrespect Mother Nature. In parks and wilderness areas, never litter and be sure to heed any posted warnings about bear and fire safety.

Gay and Lesbian Travel Overview: Denver, Colorado

By Matt Link
Perched between the Great Plains and the Rocky Mountains, Denver's greatest asset is the natural beauty surrounding the city. Not surprisingly, leisure time in the Mile High City often revolves around outdoor activities. The mild, arid climate keeps the region comfortable in each season, allowing nature lovers to get their fix year-round. With just a short drive, you can find yourself camping in majestic Rocky Mountain National Park, biking the challenging Apex or Enchanted Forest Trails, or hiking in scenic Lair O' the Bear Park.
