Here are some fun things to do this season in Fort Collins:

• Bike around town – Exploring Fort Collins by bike is a must-do during your spring visit to Fort Collins, and if you’re looking for the perfect joy ride, check out the Spring Creek and Poudre River paved trail systems that wind throughout town.

• Go to The Gardens on Spring Creek – With 12 acres of beautiful botanic gardens and 300+ North American butterflies in a tropical Butterfly House, there’s something for everyone!

• Watch the crabapple trees bloom – Enjoy the deep pink and white flowered trees that line Colorado State University and Old Town streets. Although the blooms only last for a short time, it is a sure sign of spring, and before you know it, flowers and trees around town begin to bloom as well.

• Visit The Farm at Lee Martinez Park – Since 1985, the farm has been a hands-on family experience providing insight into our agricultural history. Here, kids can interact with animals, ride ponies, play games, attend educational events, and play on the nearby playground. Stop by to meet new baby chicks at the farm – and see other familiar animals!
