Beyond campus
In one weekend:
Head to The Hill
We recommend grabbing lunch at The Sink (a Buff fave).
Take a bookstore tour
Boulder has more used-book stores per capita than any
other city in the nation. Check out the cool independent
bookshops along downtown’s Pearl Street.
Hike to Royal Arch
Lace up your boots and make the trek to Royal
Arch, a 3.2-mile round-trip hike that gains more than
1,400 vertical feet in that short distance and offers
commanding views of Boulder Valley.
Visit the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art
BMoCA inspires creativity and fosters community
through contemporary art. Admission is variable—pay
what you want.
Coffee & music
Laughing Goat on Pearl Street offers amazing
coffee and tea beverages, as well as free music
nearly every night.
