Around Town

I could right pages upon pages of things you can do for fun in and around Boulder. First of all, most people living in Boulder enjoy being outside and I would definitely say that the University get a rep for being more 'outdoorsy'. Of course, you have all different scenes at the college, but this one is the most prominent. You can snowboard/ski, back country ski, mountaineer, rock climb, hike, enjoy the Boulder Creek in the summer, mountain bike, etc. the list goes on and on with all sorts of outdoor activities since the weather, while it may be a bit chilly at times, is normally beautiful.

Boulder, Denver, and Colorado for that matter offers too much to name in this small little white box.

Go to the Hill.... for some people, I don't really like it. I would suggest making your own fun, throw your own parties.

There is so much to do: Bike ride, run, visit the rec centers, visit the library, go to the hill, see a football game, or even watch the marching band practice.

For the outdoor lovers, hiking, fishing, rock climbing, creek tubing, and kayaking are all in close range. The Rocky Mountain National Park is 45 minutes away, and skiing is as close as 30 minutes away. Options for skiers and boarders are great with easy bus access and many resorts in Colorado for all levels. For the spiritual/culture seekers, meditation, yoga, and street performing are popular in Boulder. The night life is enough to entertain, but a 45 minute trip to Denver offers decent options, and all students also get an annual bus pass. The Celestial Tea Factory, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and Chautauqua Park are all must seeâ??s.

I go to games, hang out with friends and walk the local malls. Most of the time as an engineering student I concentrate on my studies.

There are so many things to do for fun in Boulder. Pearl street has shopping and restaurants. Hiking and rock climbing are a must! Skiing and Snowboarding can be found with only a short drive (find friends that have a car). Campus golf (golf clubs and tennis balls) is a blast and it's free. There is a bowling alley on campus and they often have free showings of movies before they reach the movie theatre (say what?!). College is awesome, and the University of Colorado at Boulder has plenty of fun things to do.

There are a variety of clubs, sports, and activities available right on campus, and the mountains are only five minutes away for various other activities, such as camping, skiing, climbing, hiking, etc! A wonderful place to explore.

There are a lot of parties and concerts going on. Good night life.

Great for outdoorsy people, fantastic parties.
