Connecting the city together is the amazing Greater Cheyenne Greenway. More than just a 32-mile-long sidewalk, this 10-foot-wide reinforced concrete path is a monumental achievement and a key component in Cheyenne’s non-motorized transportation system. Walk, run, jog, bike or even skate through neighborhoods, parks and urban centers on this highly accessible outdoor path system.
See real dinosaur skeletons from the University’s archeological dig site at the Geological Museum at University of Wyoming. An amazing 75-foot Apatosaurus (Brontosaurus) skeleton dominates the museum hall, and the remaining space is filled with natural history discoveries like an Allosaurus fossil, a copper-plated T-Rex, hundreds of rock and mineral samples and intricate murals.
One of the largest outdoor rodeos and western celebrations in the world, Cheyenne Frontier Days truly demonstrates why Cheyenne earned the nickname Frontier City. Join in this popular 10-day long attraction, which draws in hundreds of thousands of visitors to this otherwise low-key city. This enormous fair features popular music performances, a midway, carnival rides, an Indian village, wild west shows and “The Daddy of ‘em All” rodeo.
