Platte Valley Trolley Ride Description
Experience a piece of the past on this open-air trolley ride, complete with sunny yellow cars with vintage wood interiors. It stops at both the REI store and the Children's Museum of Denver along the Platte River Valley, and at just 25 minutes long, it will hold little ones' attention spans. Your journey will take you past Confluence Park, where the city of Denver was founded during the Gold Rush, and Invesco Field at Mile High Stadium (home of the Broncos), among other the attractions.
Kid Tips
Babies: The gentle, slow movement of the trolley will probably lull babies to sleep.
School-Age Kids: Kids this age will enjoy the ride and learning about Denver history along the way.
