Estes park is a big attraction in Colorado. It’s an hour from Lafayette. You could do the Stanley hotel ghost tour, or just walk around the beautiful downtown area. The downtown has quite a few cute shops, great places to eat, and beautiful scenery.
Downtown Denver is 30 minutes from Lafayette. They have tons of restaurants, downtown walking, malls, and more! Would be a fun day trip.
“Old Town” or downtown Fort Collins has walking strips with boutiques, restaurants, and shops. A cute day trip to see the area!
I have never been, but heard great things about this place for the little ones!
