What do you think about an autumn trip to Denver? We think that Denver in the fall is the perfect travel time especially for nature lovers. Denver is surrounded by the gigantic Rocky Mountains and is an excellent starting point for fantastic autumn hikes. Enjoy nature in its autumnal colors and get away from all the stress at home. As an alternative program you can visit the center of Denver, Lower Downtown. Stroll through 16th Street Mall with its countless shops, restaurants and cafes. Between the skyscrapers you can admire the Victorian buildings in Denver in the fall. Denver's artists' quarter is also worth a visit during the fall months. Visit museums and galleries or Denver's huge library during your fall vacation.
Car rental at the airport
There is no shortage of car rentals at Denver Airport, and you'll find a large number of the world-renowned car rental companies with whom you're in the best of hands. However, the airport is very busy with almost 600,000 aircraft movements per year, so you should definitely reserve a rental car before you start your journey. Below we have put together a list of car rental companies where you can rent a car when you arrive, with some companies maintaining buildings outside the terminal:
The nearest petrol station is Conoco, directly on the feeder road to the airport, the Pena Blv. at a distance of about 5.6 km.
Those who have travelled to Denver for more than just business reasons should take advantage of the opportunity to rent a car in Colorado or even one of the neighboring states, such as Wyoming or New Mexico. Take a trip to Cheyenne and visit the Cowgirls of the West Museum, take a look at the beautifully refurbished Wyoming Territorial Prison State Historic Site Museum in Laramie, be enchanted by the Glen Eyrie Castle in Colorado Springs or take a walk over the Royal Gorge Bridge in Canon City. For those who prefer untouched nature, the nearby Rocky Mountain National Park, the Arapaho & Roosevelt National Forests and Pawnee Grassland or the White River National Forest and the Pike and San Isabel National Forests Cimarron and Comanche National Grasslands are particularly popular.
By rental car to the Rocky Mountains
Rocky Mountains
Our tip: Although you do not need an international driver's license to drive a rental car in the USA, this is often required in practice, so you should make an early application.
The most populous city in Colorado presents itself as unusual as the airport with its canopy roof. Reason enough not to leave the Rocky Mountains with his rental car, but to acclimatize for a few days. The botanical garden or the State Capitol is worth a special detour, but also a visit to one or two museums such as the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, the Art Museum or the Forney Museum of Transportation should definitely be on your to-do list before you leave the city. If you are planning to travel to Colorado for the first time, the following mileage information may help you plan your trip in the USA.
