Top 10 things to do on your day off and stay in Parker, Colorado.

Do you have other ideas? Post a comment and let us know your thoughts.

1.    Go to the new Parker Fieldhouse and workout, play soccer, basketball or roller hockey.

2.    Go to the Wildlife Museum with a kid and catch an IMAX movie! (Just outside Parker but close enough)

3.    Go to the Challenger Park Recreation Center for a swim or other exercise.

4.    Visit “H2 O’Brien Pool.” Great way to spend a hot summer day in Parker, CO. Slides, a zero depth entry, water cannons and a fort in the pool allow for kids and adults to play and relax.

5.    Catch a movie at the Twenty Mile Movie Theatre. 

6.    Stroll the Town of Parker and visit the shops. I guarantee you that you will run into someone you know and end up talking for at least an hour. Most of you know that we are currently undergoing a 2 million dollar expansion in the Town of Parker. The sidewalks are being widened just to accommodate more pedestrian traffic.

7.    Go horseback riding at one of the local facilities or even better take a riding lesson. You might be surprised just how little you know about horses when you start talking to a local expert and we do have plenty of horsemen and horsewomen in Parker that would love to help you learn.

8.    Take a ride on the bike path. One of my favorites! We have miles and miles of bike paths just in Parker. You can easily take a 20 mile bike ride without leaving the Town of Parker. If you feel more adventurous try the Hidden Mesa open space trail just south of town near Franktown. Hidden Mesa is great for an after work mountain bike ride that adds a little challenge to the workout. You can ride up and around the loop in about an hour and the views are some of the best around. Watch out for and be courteous to the horses. Some of the horses don’t like bikes and some could care less. Be kind.

9.    Play golf at one of the local public courses. Black Bear Golf Club over in Canterberry Crossing is a great plae to enjoy an afternoon of gold and soak up some of the best views of the front rage. The food at their new $2 million + clubhouse is very good. You may want to try and hook up with a member of the Pinery Golf Club or the  Club at Pradera too. Both are great courses and should be on your list of “to play” courses in the area.

10. Castlewood Canyon. My most favorite of all! Even after hiking this area hundreds of times I still love it the most. If you don’t want to hike try a picnic and just hang out. It amazes me when I talk to people that have bought Parker Colorado Real Estate and they have lived in the area for years and never visited Castlewood Canyon. It’s like a mini Grand Canyon right in your backyard. Go visit it and have some fun!

Have you noticed a theme for Parker Colorado?  It’s all about the activities. People here are generally outside doing something fun. Parker is a very active community and we love living here.

If you are interested in taking a look at this area and possibly buying or selling a home here I would love the opportunity to interview for the job. I’ve been selling parker Colorado real estate for years and I actually live right here in Parker.
