Explore Evergreen, Colorado

Quiet at the door. Colorado all around.

You're in a real Evergreen neighborhood — with open space on one side, a lake behind the yard, and some of the state's best-loved places a short drive away. Here's what's close.

The launchpad

Disappear into the quiet — or into Colorado.

Trails start at the door, the city is close, and some of the state's most iconic places are a short drive down the canyon.

5-minute walk

Elk Meadow Open Space

Trails from the door

One of Evergreen's largest open-space parks — 1,140 acres and 16+ miles of trail for hiking, trail running, and mountain biking, with Bergen Peak rising above it. It starts a five-minute walk from the house.

~10 min drive

Evergreen Lake & Downtown

Lake & village

Paddleboard, canoe, or fish the lake in summer; in winter it becomes one of the largest Zamboni-groomed outdoor ice rinks anywhere. Historic downtown Evergreen sits alongside it with cafés, galleries, and Bear Creek.

~25 min drive

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Iconic venue & park

The legendary sandstone amphitheatre — world-class concerts, sunrise yoga, and trails through Red Rocks Park — is a short drive down the canyon toward Denver.

Seasonal · via Squaw Pass

Mount Blue Sky Scenic Byway

Highest paved road

One of the highest paved roads in North America climbs past alpine lakes and ancient bristlecone pines toward 14,130 feet. Accessed from Evergreen; open roughly Memorial Day through Labor Day, timed-entry reservations required.

~35 min drive

Downtown Denver

The city, close by

Close enough for dinner, a game, or a museum, far enough that you come home to quiet. The mountains and the city on the same day.

~1 hr 5 min drive

Denver International Airport

Getting here

An easy, scenic transfer from DEN puts you at the door in about an hour, mostly on the highway before the last stretch into the foothills.

Around town

Everything you need, minutes away.

Settle in for a week or a season. Groceries, good coffee, a gym, a fresh cut, and a great dinner are all a short drive down the hill.
