Our family enjoyed a 10.5 mile bike ride in Ft Collins. Our loop began near the beautiful flower gardens on the CSU campus and included other open areas and ovals on the campus before following the RR to catch the Poudre River trail heading east ,downstream. Around our 6-7 mile mark we followed a trail to connect to the Spring Creek trail and followed it back west, upstream to CSU again. What a great scenic and relaxing bike ride! Ft Collins is as "cool and hip" as Boulder and even more beautiful. CSU campus is a beautiful place to see and just be.....soak in the peace and beauty of the stunning gardens and be renewed in the strength and majesty of the magnificent Rocky Mountains!!!

7. Somewhere Secret

5.0 based on 65 reviews
Somewhere Secret is a real place filled with relics, puzzles, challenges, and magic. It is a live action puzzle game that anyone can play. Somewhere Secret, of course, contains a secret. A true treasure map that leads to something amazing hidden somewhere in Colorado. You will have one hour to explore the room and solve the puzzles that lead up to the treasure chest. If you unlock the map, the adventure continues as your team embarks on the scavenger hunt to find the treasure.

Most escape rooms begin from the moment you enter and the door closes behind you. Not Somewhere Secret! It draws you in right from the moment you book with instructions leading you to a hidden spot, a rendezvous with a stranger, and a storyline that provided the perfect background for one of the most enjoyable hours I've spent in Fort Collins. The amount of thought that has gone into crafting this is very impressive. It's very engaging and also extremely fair, with some really beautifully made puzzles. I did it with a friend and we found it difficult but doable by two people with some escape room experience, while still providing enough variety and challenge to occupy a larger group with children or more novice players. I especially loved the many 'magical' effects; no two puzzles were alike and there were a lot of enjoyable 'aha!' moments. We also never felt truly stuck because there was always something to look at, fiddle with or work on. I'd highly recommend this to anyone interested in puzzles, logic, magic and adventure - it deserves every one of its five stars, and my only regret is that there's just the one experience available right now to play. If there was another, I'd definitely sign up straight away for it!
