Colorado Farm Adventures

The Aurora Reservoir Loop is one of the area's most naturally beautiful spots and a main attraction for those looking for outdoor fun. Enjoy a brisk hike in the crisp Colorado air when you make your way on the trail that surrounds the waters of the Aurora Reservoir. This trail is long enough for a moderately challenging but no less enjoyable day hike as you will travel along the winding path that circles the water and even reaches into the marshlands. Also, anglers find the area a favorite for fishing and the large beach area attracts many visitors who are out for some fun in the sun.

Boot scoot to your heart's content at Stampede, Aurora's favorite country dance club. The nightlife venue not only offers an expansive dance floor and an excellent musical selection spun by expert DJs, but you'll also find a very well-stocked bar, an inviting patio and even some pool tables to enjoy. Plus, there's a great menu of munchies to help satisfy the appetite you're very likely to work up when you hit the floor!

William Smith was an Aurora pioneer who went from raising sheep on his humble property to eventually founding Aurora's Public Schools and donating the land for Del Mar Park. See where this prominent Aurora figure lived by visiting the William Smith House that was built in 1910 and named a landmark in 1986. The home remained in the family until 1983 when Smith's daughter Margaret, passed away. The house is now a privately owned residence, but you can still stroll by and snap photos from the sidewalk.
