Outdoor Opportunities

The Veedauwoo Recreation Area, 30 minutes west of Cheyenne, is well-known for its spectacular granite rock formations. Hiking, biking and climbing are popular area activities.

The Cheyenne Community

Enjoy what the city and community of Cheyenne has to offer or escape to the wide-open spaces surrounding Cheyenne. You are just minutes away from enjoying a play or attending a concert, playing a round of golf, a tennis match, swimming, hiking, mountain biking, cross-country skiing, climbing, fishing, camping or picnicking in one our many parks. In an hour-and-a-half you could be down hill skiing and in the same amount of time you can be in the mix of busy downtown Denver.
