In the summertime, the Boulder Reservoir has swimming, boating, water-skiing, and more fun water activities. Eben G. Fine Park along the Boulder Creek is the prime spot for tubing and also has a playground for the kids, along with plenty of picnic tables and shady spots for lounging.
A fun nighttime activity in the summer is the Colorado Shakespeare Festival.

Then 45 minutes before show time, attend a conversation about the upcoming play with one of the Festival's staff members, which is bound to enhance your experience. Or if music is more your style, catch a concert at the unparalleled Red Rock Amphitheater.
In the winter, outdoor skating at The Ice Rink and skiing and snowboarding at Eldora Mountain Resort are fun options for the whole family.
Banjo Billy's unusual bus tours and star-gazing at the Fiske Planetarium are fun year-round activities, as is the Gateway Park Fun Center. Active, captivating, unique - these activities are bound to put a smile on your face. This is what vacation is all about, right?
