Things to See in Evergreen

  • Evergreen Lake

    The lake is like a postcard. It is beautifully surrounded my mountains. During the summer, visitors come to hike, bike, boat (non-motorized), and fish. One of the recently more popular activities is standup paddle boarding. The lake is also hugely popular during the winter. Evergreen Lake is perhaps the state’s best destination for ice skating. The lake includes a boardwalk and a skating hut.
  • Shopping and Dining

    Evergreen has a fun historic district that is very walkable. For shopping, Main Street is packed with galleries, boutiques, and art venues. For dining and entertainment, the district has restaurants, bars, coffee shops, theater, and live music.
  • Hiking and Climbing

    Evergreen has some great activities for outdoor exploration. During the summer, visitors come to Three Sisters Park for an endless supply of hiking trails. It is very common to see wildlife, including elk and rare birds. In the winter, Evergreen has some very cool options for ice fishing and ice climbing.

When to Visit Evergreen

  • Winter

    Winter is the dry season, but Evergreen does receive a fair amount of snow. Daily highs are in the mid-40s. Winter is a very popular time for tourists, especially for ice skating at the lake.
  • Spring

    Spring is the relatively wet season. May has daily high temps in the mid-60s. Spring isn't very busy with tourists as the weather can be unpredictable.
  • Summer

    Summers are beautiful and pleasant. Daily high temps are in the high 70s. Evergreen is about 2,000 feet higher elevation than Denver so summers are a little cooler.
  • Fall

    Early fall is nice as crowds are fewer and the colors are beautiful. Late September and early October is a good time to visit.

What an amazing tour. We saw whales, dolphins and porpoises. The crew was very friendly and enthusiastic. We could really tell they are very respectful towards the animals, we were able to see two humpbacks for nearly half an hour, everybody was silent, the engine was off and the crew was also in awe. Only when the whales left, the engine was back on and we also started moving again. We really felt like we had all the time in the world and we didn't disturb the animals.

We had an amazing time flying over the beautiful canyons, admiring the waterfalls from above. While we are both quite adventurous, I have an occasional fear of heights. The staff was incredibly friendly and professional, putting our minds perfectly at ease and making the best experience for us possible.

This was one of the BEST experiences I have ever had! We extended our trip into a two-tank dive and got to explore the surrounding areas of the garden eel bay before going into our manta show.

This was one of our favorite experiences on the trip. Kensington Market is an incredible neighborhood with a vibrant culture. We had a LOT of food on this tour. If you're thinking this will be sample size HAHA you're wrong.

A wedding guest bought this voucher for me and my husband from our wedding registry via The Knot. We had Chiqui and Jonathan as our guides and they were great! Very personable and knowledgeable. They provided a cooler with water, soda and beer.

The catamaran was smooth and clean. The food was wonderful. The captain and staff were friendly and engaging. We could have have asked for a more fun and educational experience around the island. The snorkeling was wonderful with tons of fish, corral and eels.

My husband and I went on the catamaran cruise during our honeymoon in Milos... exceptional experience! I can not recommend it enough! Beautiful views, crystal clear water, delicious food and awesome crew! A trip to Milos would not be complete without this cruise! 10/10!

Francesca, our guide, was super personable and knowledgeable about the city and legends of Venice. The tour started near the train station and followed through all the alleys and streets to San Marco Square. The weather and the sunset were absolutely beautiful as well.
