We have lots of hiking trails. Most of North and South Table Mountains are Open Space, and several trails lead West into the Mountains.

The Lookout Mountain Nature Center and Preserve is well worth visiting.  Located just above the city on Lookout Mountain, they have a beautiful facility, built largely of recycled materials.  Exhibits cover migrating birds and information about the ponderosa pine forest.  The center sits on a 110 acre property that includes several nature trails.

Pine Cliff Stables offers horseback rides that give you scenic views without having to travel far into the Rockies. Located north of Golden.
