Shared Half-Day Mountain Tour in Red Rocks Evergreen and Echo Lake

Overview
This is the best half day mountain tour to get out of Denver and see the mountains without spending an entire day touring. These small group tours are designed to get you out to See, Learn and Explore not just drive past. This tour really highlights the best of our Denver Mountain Park system. Visit Red Rocks Park and amphitheater, then travel up into the mountains via  Bear Creek Canyon to the quaint mountain town of Evergreen.  Browse the local shops or enjoy a quick drink in the Saloon, winery, or local coffee shop. Witness beautiful Rocky Mountain vistas while climbing over a beautiful mountain pass to  Echo Lake at 10,600 ft.  Stroll around this beautiful glacial lake sitting at the base of 14,256 foot Mt. Evans and enjoy the mountain scenery.  Travel by historic  Genesee Mountain Park while viewing herds of Buffalo and Elk on your way back into Denver.  *Wildlife viewing not guaranteed.

I did this trip as well as the Rocky Mountain tour and I was lucky to have Scott as a guide for both trips. He’s a local, he loves the outdoors and loves showing people around the area he loves. There was plenty of time to see what we wanted to see and take in the special local places like Echo Lake Lodge. He stopped plenty of times for us to take pics and knew the best picture spots. I didn’t know what to expect going into these tours and was extremely pleased with both trips. Red Rocks is absolutely amazing and I want to come back for a concert. I would love to come have and take other tours to get a local’s view of the area.

Red Rocks is something that you just have to see to understand the complexity of the project. Echo Lake was a place on Mt. Evans that provided us great pictures. Evergreen was a small town that we stopped in but nothing really special but I guess we had to stop in one of the small towns. Our guide Christy was very good. She was knowledgeable and alway offered to take pictures and answer questions. Tour was booked through Trip Advisor and would recommend this half day trip to get out of the city to see the site.
