Evergreen, Colorado is nestled in the foothills west of
Denver. Seemingly a world apart but just minutes away, Evergreen is an easy
commute off Interstate-70, only 35 minutes from downtown Denver, 50 minutes
from the Denver Tech Center, and 70 minutes from Denver International
Airport. At an elevation of 7,200 feet, surrounded by blue spruce
and pine forests, our climate offers relief from the hot summers, with
temperatures ranging from the high 70's to the low 80's; and winters are
surprisingly mild, in the mid 40's to 50 degrees.
Well established as one of Colorado's hidden treasures
and a popular day escape, the Evergreen community offers an array of parks,
art galleries, theatre, restaurants, entertainment, and more. Evergreen
Lake, our crown jewel is fed by tributaries from Mt. Evans and is known for
its all-season recreational activities such as boating, fishing, birding,
ice-skating, weddings and concerts, and is bordered by mountain parks with
miles of trails for hiking, biking, snowshoeing, and horseback riding.
The Evergreen Area Chamber of Commerce is located on the
second floor of the Historic Evergreen Hotel in downtown Evergreen. Tourist
and community information, as well as county, state, and local business
brochures fill the racks of the hotel's first floor lobby for our guests'
convenience, including our Evergreen Map. We encourage you to take a copy of the Chamber's annual
Business Directory & Community Resource Guide which features all the members
and the valuable services and eclectic mercantile that they provide to the
community.
We are fortunate to showcase many award winning
businesses in Evergreen and we hope your visit to Evergreen, Colorado, and
