Although probably best known for its skiing, with thousands of people from all over the world travelling here each winter to experience the powdery snow and gigantic peaks of the Rocky Mountains, Colorado is a year-round destination. From Denver’s amazing craft beer, culinary scene and superb art galleries to the canyons, multi-coloured cliffs, bridges and immense monoliths of the Colorado Plateau, a visit to Americas highest altitude state offers something for everyone. As an extra bonus for a more laid-back type of traveller, recreational marijuana use was legalised here in 2014!
