Boulder and Estes Park Run Wild

Just because the world-famous Bolder Boulder race is over this year, it’s not time to hang up your sneakers. Because, as if there wasn’t enough to do in Estes Park this summer, the Estes Park version of the Bolder Boulder–the Sombrero Trail Run–is taking place on Saturday, September 13, 2008.

All the running, hiking, climbing, and outdoor frolicking aren’t the only things that Estes and Boulder have in common, however. For starters, take a look at the geography of Boulder (map of Boulder homes) and Estes Park (map of Estes Park homes.) Among other things, they’re both sweetheart towns with a quality of life standard that includes great natural scenery and surroundings, a laid-back, down-home atmosphere, and scads of arts and culture experiences. In both Boulder and Estes Park, downtown is where the action is, with most full-time residents taking to the outskirts of town to build their nests.

In Estes Park, today’s most active neighborhood markets include:

Carriage Hills
Fall River Village
Fall River Estates
Park River West

In Boulder, today’s most active neighborhood markets include:

If you’re a homebuyer who’s considering either town, take your own private tour with either an Estes Park REALTOR or a Boulder REALTOR for an expert opinion on the market and lifestyle of these two Colorado keepers.
