Visiting Denver at different times of the year will reveal the many faces of this fascinating city. Winter is cold, and snowy, with the best skiing in nearby Aspen available from around November through until March, spring is mild and wet and the time to visit in order to see the flowers in bloom, while summer is baking hot, and the time of year when most of the main events in the city's calendar take place. Autumn brings pleasant weather and is a good time to visit if you want to do some hiking in the area, as the cooler weather makes moving around less arduous.
