Itinerary

  • Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre

  • Trading Post Trail (Pass By)

This relatively easy trail is a great way to explore the park and get great views of Red Rocks amphitheatre.

    Although Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre is owned and maintained by the city of Denver, it lies within Jefferson County, which in turn includes the municipality of Morrison. You may pass through the small town of Morrison on your way to Red Rocks to meet your guide at the venue. If you’re looking for things to do in Colorado following your tour, your guide will have plenty of recommendations for where to discover Morrison’s dinosaur history and restaurants and bars to enjoy after the walking tour!

    Named for one of the rock formations flanking the Red Rocks amphitheatre stage, this restaurant might be your post-tour stop for lunch or dinner with an incredible view. Your tour guide will have plenty of recommendations for where to dine in the area or, if you’re heading back to town, places to eat in Denver.

    You may have driven on part of this byway and taken in some of the majestic views of the Rocky Mountains along the way. If you’re looking for more amazing Colorado experiences after your tour, your local guide will have plenty of recommendations!

  • Statue to John Denver (Pass By)

    Our tour may stop at this iconic statue that greets many concert goers at the Trading Post. You’ll hear about John Denver’s legacy and that of many other legendary musicians who have toured at Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre!

    This park overlooking Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre offers trails of various levels of difficulty and some of the most jaw-dropping views of Colorado’s foothills and hogbacks. For trail and outdoor recreating advice, ask your tour guide for their personal recommendations!

Wonderful views and Kristina was awesome

Published on Jan, 2025

Incredible views! Kristina was a fantastic guide. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and fun! As a Colorado native, she had extensive experience and background to share.

A must for a Colorado trip!

Views and history were amazing!! The amphitheatre is so neat. Our tour guide, Lisa, was SUPER knowledgeable and really easy to talk to. We traveled from Florida so the altitude and cold were a little of a challenge for us but Lisa was so patient and understanding. I highly recommend this tour, it was so fun!

Fun family tour of Red Rocks
