Biking and hiking paths connect the area to the 17,000-acre Rocky Mountain Arsenal Wildlife Refuge where city gives way to prairie. It's not unusual to spot golden eagles soaring in the skies above and bison wandering the wilderness.

After enjoying the outdoors, relax and take advantage of the shopping and dining at The Shops at Northfield Stapleton, Stanley Marketplace or Hangar 2. It's no secret why Central Park is frequently named one of the best neighborhoods for living, working, and visiting in Denver. Come to a city where you can see mountains for miles and experience four beautiful but temperate seasons in an exceptionally pet friendly place!
