Echo Lake is about an hour's drive west of Denver. The night before our visit, we slept in Idaho Springs, so the drive was only 10 minutes.

The lake is spectacular in its beauty. The water is so clear, and in the morning, it's really like a mirror - look at the pictures: it looks like someone edited the images in Photoshop:
In the vicinity of the lake park, there are several hiking trails of different difficulty levels. We walked an enjoyable route that surrounded half a lake.
There are toilets and a picnic area.
Free admission.
It is highly recommended!
