Have you been stuck in the Big Smoke too long? Let’s do a test. Are your nostrils more familiar with the scent of exhaust fumes than with tree sap? Was the last beast to cross your path a mouse scuttling down the tracks of your local tube station? Do your ears ring more to the sound of car horns than to bird song? Was the last star you spotted a shining light from Hollywood? If you answered yes to any of these, it’s time you got out of town.
There are few better places to answer nature’s call (not in that way) than Colorado’s Rocky Mountain National Park. As little as 120km (75 miles) away from Denver by car (depending if your goal is to get there quickly or see plenty of scenery on the way), RMNP is sure to relieve any pent-up inner-city pressure.
