Boulder is home to the University of Colorado’s flagship campus and to a remarkable concentration of federal science labs, including NOAA, NIST and the National Center for Atmospheric Research. That research base has spawned aerospace, natural foods, outdoor gear and software companies, and the city’s startup culture has made it a regular stop for investors and founders. The Flatirons rise directly above town, and a greenbelt of open space surrounds the city.

Boulder has its own municipal airport for small aircraft, a short drive from downtown, while the region’s main commercial airport is a long drive across the plains. Flying private into Boulder or a nearby airfield saves that commute and lets visiting faculty, scientists and investors schedule meetings around the day rather than the airline. Leisure visitors come for hiking and climbing in the Flatirons and Eldorado Canyon, cycling the foothills, the Pearl Street Mall and day trips up to Rocky Mountain National Park through Estes Park.

Things to do in Boulder

When to go. Boulder has sunny weather much of the year, with a long hiking and cycling season from spring through fall. Memorial Day brings the Bolder Boulder 10K, one of the largest road races in the country, and summer evenings fill with concerts at Chautauqua and the Colorado Music Festival. Fall is crisp and colorful. Winters are milder than in the mountains, with snow that often melts quickly from the trails.
