I’d jump out on a limb and say a big reason A LOT of people move to Denver is to be closer to the mountains. But just because you are working a 9 to 5 office job downtown in the city though doesn’t mean the only time you can get out and enjoy nature is on the weekends.

Lucky for us in Denver, we don’t have to only be weekend warriors. While you may not be crushing a 14’er after work, that doesn’t mean you can’t climb some mountains! Curious where you can get in a quick hike after work? Peep my four suggestions which are only a thirty minute (or less!) drive from the city.
