"80 acres of Chautauqua Park (pronounced shuh-TAW-kwuh) is located right next to Open Space Mountain Park trails, Chautauqua Dining Hall and Auditorium, and Chautauqua Ranger Cottage. Its history dates back to over 100 years ago when Boulder City started preserving wild lands. Now, it gives its visitors an opportunity for unstructured interaction with nature."

"One of the most iconic sights in the Boulder area, the Flatirons are a series of stunning rock walls that stand to the side of the equally spectacular Green Mountain. There are both large and smaller formations here and if you are feeling active (and brave!) then you can try rock climbing, which first began in the 1940s. If that doesn’t appeal, then there are more serene activities such as enjoying the majesty of the Flatirons by hiking several trails around the area."

"When you drive into Boulder on US-36 you can't help but be impressed by the Boulder Flatirons. The top is one of several perfect spots to see the whole city of Boulder as well as go for a nice, fairly easy hike. Of course, there are some challenging places to hike, but if you park at the NOAA building like we did, the hike into the Flatirons is pretty level."

"If you enjoy hiking, trekking, long scenic nature walks and rock climbing, Flatirons is the place for you to go. The main trails of Flatirons start at the southern end of the town at Chautauqua. A bright summer day or cool Spring day is the most appropriate days to visit this breathtaking site."
