While it may be considered a small town, Laramie is bursting at the seams with activities
and adventures. Nestled between the Snowy and Laramie Mountain Ranges, Laramie sits
at an elevation of 7,200 feet and offers access to outdoor activities, art, culture,
restaurants, and local shopping. Laramie is only a quick trip to larger metropolitan
areas for those seeking the occasional city experience. Many of the incredible opportunites
Laramie has to offer have been highlighted in About Laramie.
Historic downtown Laramie was built in the 1860's next to the railroad which first
gave life to the town. The old brick structures have now been converted to chocolate
shops, bookstores, breweries, coffee shops, outdoor adventure stores, art galleries,
and restaurants featuring delicious local fare.
Largely due to the University of Wyoming, Laramie serves as a cultural hub in Wyoming.
Visitors can see visiting and permanent exhibits at the UW Art Museum, and the Geological Museum is also a favorite of adults and children alike.
