Do One Thing Indoors. Do This One Outside.
Denver has no shortage of indoor attractions. What it does not have is ten ziplines and a four-storey aerial course — that is 30 minutes south, and it pairs with everything else on your list.
Tours from $99 per person · 2.5-3 hours on course
What to pair it with
A zipline tour runs 2.5-3 hours. That leaves most of a day — here is what our Denver guests do with it.
Indoors · immersive art
Meow Wolf Denver
Convergence Station is the pairing our Denver guests make most. It is off I-25 on the way back into the city, so a morning on the lines and an afternoon inside works cleanly in one day.
5 minutes from us
Downtown Castle Rock
Lunch after your tour without driving back into the city first. Several good places within a couple of blocks.

Common questions
What is there to do near Denver outdoors?
The closest full zipline tour to Denver is The EDGE in Castle Rock, 30 minutes south on I-25 with no mountain driving — a 10-line tour plus a four-storey Sky Trek course with over 110 obstacles. Most visitors pair it with an indoor attraction in the city.
Can you do Meow Wolf and ziplining in the same day?
Yes, and it is the pairing our Denver guests make most. A morning zipline tour runs 2.5-3 hours; Meow Wolf Denver sits just off I-25 on the way back into the city, so a 9 or 10am tour leaves the whole afternoon free.
How much does ziplining at The EDGE cost?
The 10-Line Zipline Tour is $99 per person on weekdays, or $111.87 with the 13% Castle Rock city access fee included. Combining activities brings the zipline price down: added to the EPIC Sky Trek and the Adventure Tower it costs $79.10 per person instead of $111.87 — a saving of $32.77, or 29% — and all three activities together come to $190.97 per person. The booking page shows the exact add-on price for each activity as you select it. The Ninja Warrior Course is included free whenever the Adventure Tower is in your booking, a $32.77 value. Weekend and peak departures are set at a higher rate, and further discounts are often available depending on which departure you choose — the price shown when you pick a time is the price you pay.
What is there to do in Denver when it is cold?
Indoor attractions carry the winter in Denver, but the ziplines run year-round too — the Front Range sits lower than the mountain resorts, so the course stays open with clear views and far smaller crowds than summer.
