Nestled in foothills 15 miles southwest of Denver and just a few miles from Evergreen, Conifer is far enough from the big city to feel like a true mountain community, but still close enough for visitors to enjoy all Denver has to offer. Conifer, Colorado is an amazing place to live especially if you enjoy the outdoors. Imagine living in a pine tree forest with cascading mountain views.  Conifer has access to many open space parks like Staunton State Park and Flying J Ranch, that consist of thousands of acres for you to hike, mountain bike, horseback ride, snowshoe and fish.  If you enjoy offloading in your Jeep or OHV then Slaughterhouse Gulch is a great place to visit and explore. Just a short jaunt away is Evergreen Lake where you can go canoeing or paddle-boarding during the Summer or go ice skating or play ice hockey.  If you enjoy music concerts be sure to check out world famous, Red Rocks Amphitheater located right in Morrison.  If you enjoy skiing, you are a little over an hour drive from Breckenridge and many other world-class ski resorts. There is no shortage of things to do to say the least.
