The museum explores Cody’s performance career, while the gravesite and observation deck explain why this summit became part of his story. Add the short walk from the museum rather than leaving after the exhibits. Mountain weather and road travel make this a different outing from central Denver’s museums.
What to look for
The museum explains Buffalo Bill Cody’s Wild West show.
A short paved walk leads to the grave and mountain outlook.
Useful to know
Plan the museum and gravesite as one Lookout Mountain stop, with the short paved walk between them.
Allow for the drive west of Denver and bring a layer for conditions at the overlook.
