By far the largest airport in Colorado is in Denver. Shuttle buses radiate from there to all the main towns and ski resorts - as do commuter-style aircraft. Denver is also a major hub for Greyhound buses to all neighboring states. Amtrak trains run straight across the middle of Colorado, timed in both directions to pass through magnificent Glenwood Canyon in daylight hours, but are so slow that they're barely more efficient than the hugely enjoyable tourist train, the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, in the southwest.

Colorado is also one of the best destinations in the world for cyclists , hosting numerous on- and off-road championships. For excellent maps and guides to cycle routes in the state, contact the State Department of Transportation (tel 719/530-0051).
