Enjoy a trip to the Colorado Rockies with a private charter flight to the Centennial State. Colorado is one of the most spectacular states in the U.S. thanks to its expansive mountain scenery, making it a major travel destination all year round. Whether hiking in the summer or staying at one of the state’s world-class ski resorts in the winter, there is never a bad time to visit Colorado. With the state capital of Denver also serving as one of the region's financial and technological hubs, Colorado attracts visitors from the surrounding area and all around the globe for all types of travel.
Colorado is one of the most frequently visited states in the United States, having received 86 million visitors in 2019. Several factors contribute to Colorado’s heavy tourist population.
Geographically, Colorado serves as the gateway between the midwest, southwest, and western states, making it a major crossroads for regional travel. It is also a popular destination thanks to the Rocky Mountains, which run north-to-south through the center of the state, offering some of the best views and outdoor experiences in North America. Lastly, the city of Denver is the largest metropolitan area in the Rocky Mountains, making it a major destination for regional business travel.
Colorado has a population of roughly 5.6 million people. While many areas of the state are sparsely inhabited due to the mountainous terrain, the state does have several major population centers. In addition to Denver, Colorado Springs, Grand Junction, and Boulder are among the state’s largest cities.
Colorado has the highest average elevation of any state, with an average altitude of 6,800 feet. When traveling to the mountains for the first time, visitors should be aware of the signs and symptoms of elevation sickness above 8000 feet.
The largest airport in Colorado is Denver International Airport (DEN). Private planes may land at any of the state’s other smaller airports. Given the difficulty of navigating some mountain roads in the area, private flights to preferred destinations can make your Colorado trip much easier. Airports like Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport, Eagle County Regional Airport, or Aspen/Pitkin County Airport are all available to charter flights looking to avoid major crowds or inconvenient itineraries.
Hiking and skiing are the most popular recreational outdoor activities in the state of Colorado. Rocky Mountain National Park is widely considered the crown jewel of the state, with the nearby town of Estes Park serving as a great resting spot for outdoor adventurers and sightseers.
Among the most popular peaks for climbers in the state is Pikes Peak, a 14,000-foot mountain just outside Colorado Springs.
In the winter, Colorado transforms into one of North America’s premier skiing destinations. Famous ski towns like Aspen and Crested Butte welcome visitors from around the globe looking to challenge themselves on their slopes while enjoying luxury resorts.
If hiking and skiing are not for you, or if you are looking for something more relaxed, Colorado is still a beautiful state to visit. Horse rides along the scenic byways, or scenic drives through the mountain roads, are also a great way to take in the state’s natural splendor.
The Denver area is also home to many unique attractions. The city itself offers visitors exquisite denying and luxury hotels and other venues. A short drive outside the city can take you to the famous Red Rock Amphitheater, an outdoor concert venue built into a natural rock structure.
