The Colorado communities of Arvada, Lakewood, Golden, Wheat Ridge, Evergreen and Morrison invite you to visit this vibrant region. Only minutes west of downtown Denver, enjoy the great outdoors, dining, shopping, arts & culture, and more!  Whether you are on vacation, traveling for business or a local resident, Jefferson County is situated at the base of the majestic Rocky Mountains and enjoys easy access to all major aerial highways. 

Experience Jefferson County!
Picture yourself hiking through trails of towering pines in one of Jeffco’s pristine Open Space parks. Take a step back in time and experience how the west was won, or how the homesteaders stayed the course. Your little ones will love an adventure discovering everything from dinosaurs to railroads. Shop some the region’s best independent merchants and galleries for Colorado-made treasures. Take in a live theater performance or music concert after dining at one of Jefferson County’s premier restaurants.  Hit the links at one of Jeffco’s 21 picturesque golf courses.
