Denver, CO

City overview

Denver pairs a lively, walkable downtown with the Rocky Mountains on its western horizon, so a single trip can take in world-class museums, Red Rocks and a day in the high country. The city sits a mile above sea level and gets plenty of sunshine year-round. Denver has a long-established Orthodox community spread across three neighbourhoods — East Denver around South Monaco Parkway and Holly Street, historic West Denver near Colfax, and Southeast Denver by the Tech Center — each with its own eruv. Scroll K, the Vaad Hakashrus of Denver, supervises the city's kosher restaurants, and a cluster of them sits within walking distance of the East Denver shuls.
