Mount Blue Sky Summit Experience & Red Rocks Tour
Overview
Join us on an adventure to one of Colorado’s tallest mountains! We’ll start by taking in the views at one of the world’s most unique and scenic outdoor music venues, Red Rocks Amphitheatre. From there, we’ll head towards Mt. Blue Sky (formerly known as Mt. Evans) on a scenic bypass with panoramic views. Enjoy your lunch and stroll at Echo Lake. Drive up Mt. Blue Sky to Summit Lake at almost 13'000 feet for some stunning views. If you are seeking an all-day outing that gets you close to nature while showcasing Colorado’s stunning beauty, this is the tour for you!
