This Brewery is absolutely beautiful. They have a huge outside patio with games and activities for everyone to enjoy. Their beer selection is by far one of the best I've ever seen. My favorite beer was definitely the Mango Wheat, very refreshing and crisp.

Located in the heart of Old Town Fort Collins, the Rio is open for dine-in and outdoor service. You now can get food and margaritas to go. In my opinion some of the best margaritas in Colorado. The patio is a must especially with its beautiful historic fountain in the middle of it all.

The Municipal Railroad Experience
The only original city streetcar still operating in the Western U.S. is Birney Car 21 near Old Town. The Fort Collins Municipal Railway Society works with the local museum to preserve the electric railway line as part of the city's living history. Completely staffed by volunteers, the trolley runs for a small fee on summer weekends and holidays. The three-mile round trip travels along Mountain Avenue from City Park, through a lush suburban neighborhood, and ends just a few blocks from the Old Town District before returning.

See the Bison at Soapstone Prairie Natural Area
The Soapstone Prairie Natural Area is a wide-open landscape with an astounding comeback story. Fort Collins purchased the land in 2004; since then, the city has done a phenomenal job of conserving the environment and reintroducing native species into the ecosystem. The open space is 28 square-miles of native grasslands and shrubbery, with trails ranging from a quarter of a mile to miles-long hiking and biking paths. Photograph the wildflowers in the spring, or the majestic Yellowstone Buffalo saved from the brink of extinction.

Include Your Canine in Pet-Friendly Activities
A lack of pet-friendly accommodations can sometimes make or break a travel destination. Luckily, Fort Collins is home to several establishments that welcome furry friends when you're ready to trade natural open spaces for delicious eateries, bustling breweries, or comfortable and historic hotels. Multiple off-leash dog parks in the area give you a chance to let your companion run free, with Spring Canyon Park being a favorite among the locals.
