What to do and see in Colorado, United States: The Best Farms

October 25, 2021 Ying Subia

Colorado is home to no less than twenty-six ski resorts such as those in Vail and Breckenridge; other winter activities include snowboarding, sledding, sleigh rides, snow hiking and snowmobiling. The state is blessed with national parks, grasslands and forests where in warmer weather you can enjoy hiking, mountain biking or rock climbing. Wildlife abounds, from bears to moose and raccoons to wolverines. More interested in local history? Head for either the Ute Indian Museum or the Koshare Indian Museum, and don't miss the forts such as Fort Garland and Bent's Old Fort. For a complete change, why not take a ride in a hot air balloon from South Park Valley or Boulder and admire Colorado's picturesque landscape from above?

Sopris Alpaca Farm

My husband and I purchased "The 53" in 2017 to have more room to spread out our every growing Alpaca herd. We now have 51 Alpacas!! We spent last year bringing this 1896 property back to life. We moved into our cabin in the spring and then began renovation on our Alpaca Boutique, which opened in October of 2018. We are now open daily from 10-4. Sharing the wonderful world of Alpacas with the public. Come put your hands on an Alpaca, learn about their heritage and then visit our boutique and see the array of products made from their luxurious fiber. The boutique is stocked with hats, scarves, mittens, socks, yarn, stuffed animals, and much much more!! Bring the family and hand feed an Alpaca. We look forward to sharing our beautiful property with you!!!

A must stop in the area! Great alpaca gifts in gift shop for all price ranges. Owners are terrific, calming sweet place to hang out and see how sweet a or multiple alpaca's are. Sit in sun enjoy quiet moments in serene setting, take a walk down the lane breathe in fresh colorado mountain air! Don't forget camera, fun for the whole family! Love it so much go at least every couple weeks for solitude, peace and the animals! working farm with cats, bunnies around outside. A great place for activities, parties, stay a little or long time open daily 10-4. Not a place for your dogs.
