REI Denver Flagship Location

The REI Denver flagship location in Denver, Colorado is a must visit for anyone who is interested in the outdoors or sports. The spacious property on the banks of the Platte River offers all of the fantastic REI products for camping and biking and snow sports.

You can rent some gear here, but NOT a bike (despite what the guy at the hotel told me).

The store doesn’t open until 10:00, so if you’re time is all out of whack because you’ve flown in from the east coast and you’re looking for something to do at 7:00 am you’ll just have to wait.

The property also hosts a Starbucks, with indoor and outdoor seating. The banks of the Platte outside of REI is a great place to take a lunch on a nice day or the trails offer great walking or biking opportunities. If you’re headed there from downtown, the Free Mall Shuttle can save you about a mile of walking distance.
