Aurora is the third largest city in Colorado
and a significant suburb of Denver,
lying 15 mi (24 km) west of the capital. The city and surrounding area boasts
large numbers of green spaces and parks, many containing trails that connect the
northwest portion of Metro
Denver. An excellent example of the area's interconnectivity is found at the
Sand
Creek Regional Greenway, which features a 14 mi (22 km) pathway that winds
through wooded areas of Aurora, Commerce
City and Denver. Aurora contains several destinations that support water-based
activities, such as Cherry
Creek State Park's 880-acre lake, used for fishing, swimming and boating,
and the Aurora
Reservoir with its sailing and boating opportunities. Nearby, the culture
of the original Native American habitants of Colorado is preserved at the Plains
Conservation Center, a two-site exhibit, covering more than 6,800 acres (2,752
ha) with cultural displays of the Cheyenne people and the early pioneers.
