With the foothills at your back door, it is the perfect playground for the outdoor enthusiast. Hiking trails, biking and 16 miles to skiing are just a little of what this area has to offer.

As if The North End doesn’t sound great enough already, in the heart of the community is the ever popular Hyde Park. Hyde Park is best experienced by bike or foot. The quaint streets are lined with eateries and several antique and specialty shops. Walking through this part of town feels like a refuge from the outside world. The Hyde Park Street Fair, typically held in September, is the must hit event of the area.
