    Road cycling

    Lookout mountain is the go-to climb for cyclists all over the area. The climb starts off moderately steep, levels off mid way, then picks back up at the top. Traffic is generally light and most cars are courteous. Once you hit the top, you are treated with panoramic views of downtown Denver at the Buffalo Bill Memorial viewing platform.

    Running

    Enjoy looking out from the observation deck as you can see Denver and the perfectly straight Colfax Road that splits down the middle.
