Colorado & Utah
UTAH’S SCENIC PATCHWORK
The wide-open spaces of Utah are a patchwork
of majestic mountains, rugged red rock canyons,
parched deserts, lush forests and dramatic gorges,
carved out of the landscape by rivers. It is truly
unique, and a fantastic playground in which to
enjoy all sorts of outdoor activities. Cast yourself
in your own Western with a drive through the
mesmerising sandstone formations of Monument
Valley. Travel through the canyons of Zion National
Park, gaze in wonder at the pinnacles and arches of
Bryce Canyon National Park and take to the water
in the 1.2 million acres that make up Glen Canyon
Recreational Park.
COLORADO’S DIVERSITY
300 days of sunshine each year, parades, music and
art festivals, outdoor activities, indulgent shopping
and even more indulgent culinary experiences all
await in the cultural city of Denver. There’s even
a Rocky Mountain Highland Games. Relax and
soak up the views in Colorado Springs, nestled in
the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, and don’t
miss a ride on the Pikes Peak Cog Railway, which is
the highest cog railroad in the world. Aspen is all
about elegance, style and grandeur at any time of
year. Together with Vail and Beaver Creek, you’ll
experience the ultimate in luxury holidays with
romance, skiing and outdoor adventure thrown in.
Old Town Telluride will transport you right back to
the Old West; it’s packed with character and charm.
