Horsetooth Reservoir
Fort Collins is a great place to set up base camp for excursions to the Rocky Mountains and/or the Great Plains. Whether it’s boating, kayaking, rafting, hiking, biking, skiing, golfing, fishing, or any other outdoor activity, you’ll find it in Fort Collins!
Horsetooth Rock
Hiking Horsetooth Rock is a short, 2.5 mile hike up a fairly steep and well-marked grade to Horsetooth Rock. Elevation gain is 1500 ft. Allow 2.5 – 3 hours for a round trip to the tip-top at a moderate pace.
Cache La Poudre River
With miles and miles of paddle-ready water, fly-fishing water, and hiking/biking trails, there’s plenty of opportunity to explore the city and surrounding areas!!
Bike Trails
Fort Collins has several trails for walking, jogging, in-line skating, biking, or a leisurely stroll. The trails are maintained year round and snow is removed from the trails during the winter months. Trails serve as commuter routes for many students and residents as well. The beautiful scenery that can be enjoyed along the system often makes one forget that they are in urban Fort Collins.
Movies
After a long day of rafting and biking it is time to kick back, relax and go see a movie at the Holiday Twin Drive In Theatre.
If you prefer the movie theatres there are also many theatres located around town for your enjoyment.
New Belgium
Fort Collins is home to New Belgium Brewing who offer exceptional beer, brewery tours and an annual bicycle parade and festival known as the Tour de Fat.
