Experience the Outdoors
In Aurora, residents and visitors have access to diverse experiences, surrounded by nature, perfectly situated between an urban and mountainous environment. Although Aurora is considered a gateway to the Rockies, there are plenty of things to do right at home. From paddleboarding to hiking, golfing to boating — the list goes on. Many find joy in fishing at the numerous ponds and lakes situated in the city’s 103 developed parks, all while bikers and walkers pass by on the hundreds of miles of paved trails including the new Highline Canal extension.
In and around Aurora, residents and visitors can enjoy National Parks, State Parks, Rock Climbing, Boating, Backpacking, ATVing, Dogsledding, Horseback Riding, Hunting, Biking, and so much more. Choose from nine golf courses for all experience levels. Most of those activities can be found within the city limits, but many find themselves on one-in-a-lifetime road trips to experience all that Colorado has to offer.
