Know before you go

  • This is not a hiking tour, but it does include multiple stops and short walks. Please make sure you're physically able to take part
  • On days when a show or concert is scheduled, access to the Red Rocks Amphitheater may be limited or not possible. May through October is Red Rocks' busiest concert season. It's suggested to take the morning tour for the best chance to walk into the amphitheater before it closes for sound checks. Echo Lake is accessible year-round, but there are times in the winter when snow, wind, or avalanche conditions may prohibit travel up to this high elevation

Our guide was very informative and very entertaining. The trip was very enjoyable. We only got to spend about 30 minutes at each stop. I would like to spend a little more time at the red rocks theater, and Evergreen. The time we spent at Echo Lake seemed appropriate. It was a great trip. Thank you!

Hans is an outstanding tour guide—polite, highly knowledgeable, and well-prepared. He had a deep understanding of the needs of first-time travelers to Colorado, especially regarding altitude-related concerns. Additionally, he guided us expertly, sharing detailed information about Colorado’s history, mining, and fossils.
