Did You Know? Free Safari Outside of Denver Is An Amazing Attraction

Sometimes it can be difficult to find cheap or free entertainment in Colorado. Finding affordable ways to entertain the family can be a real challenge, especially in a place like Colorado where the options are endless but can come with a hefty price tag.

We just discovered a way to entertain the entire family for free. There is a safari near Denver that you need to check out.

Experiences at Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge

As we mentioned, this is a free experience. You can experience Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge in a few different ways.

There are hiking and bicycle trails. There are 20 miles of trails to walk. You can also take a tour in your vehicle. There is an 11-mile drive and the refuge offers a podcast that will guide you through everything.

It is pretty remarkable that this is a free attraction. I have been to a safari on the west coast that cost more than $150 a person. You should take advantage of this.
