South Park City, in Fairplay CO. About an hour SW of Denver on US 285. It's a recreated Old West town from buildings collected throughout the region, great way to spend a day. And the drive itself to get there is magnificent, regardless of which way you come.
US 285 out of Denver will take you through some beautiful areas as you make your way to Kenosha Pass at 10000 feet and the incredible vista from the top of the pass that is South Park.
Or coming up US 24 from Colorado Springs, also a beautiful view as you enter South Park from the east, albeit not quite as dramatic as the view from Kenosha Pass.
