Insidertips om Denver

1.	Take a Day Trip! Denver is a great city, but one of the best things about Denver is its proximity to the Rocky Mountains and nearby parks, geological formations, and quaint mountain towns. Explore the striking scenery of Rocky Mountain National Park, just two hours away from Denver, or the quaint college vibrancy of Boulder, a half an hour from the city. Fort Collins, home of University of Colorado and the Anheuser Busch Brewery, is just an hour from Denver, as well. Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak… the list goes on. Check website for details. « skjul
2.	Altitude Sickness Denver is called the Mile High City because it’s official altitude is exactly one mile above sea level. Although generally travelers don’t have problems with altitude sickness, it’s a good idea to take precautions. Drink a lot of water to avoid dehydration, use plenty of sun block (higher altitude means you are closer to the sun) to prevent sunburn. The higher elevation also means less oxygen, so if you start to feel lightheaded, slow down and take a rest. If you feel nauseous, dizzy, have difficulty breathing or start to vomit, see a doctor immediately. « skjul
3.	Weather Contrary to popular belief, Denver does not receive frequent heavy snow, but because of the higher altitude, it can snow later in Spring and earlier in the Fall than most places. A blizzard in April is not uncommon. Also, the weather changes quickly, so be sure to wear layers. As the sun goes down, the temperature drops quickly. Lastly, if you’re planning on visiting the mountains or the foothills, remember that the temperature drops quickly as you climb in elevation, and it sometimes snows in the mountains and foothills, even in the summer months, so be prepared! « skjul
4.	Areas to Avoid Denver is generally a safe city, but be cautious when walking alone at night. The 16th Street Mall area is safe in the daytime, but later at night, it can get a little dicey, so stay alert, walk like you know where you’re going, and don’t speak with strangers if approached. East Colfax Avenue is also said to be generally safe, but sometimes sketchy at night, so also keep your guard up when walking in this area. « skjul
