March in Longmont is a bit of a wildcard, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. One day you might be soaking up the sun, and the next you’re watching big, fluffy snowflakes blanket the Front Range. With longer days finally arriving, March is the perfect time to explore everything our community has to offer. Whether you want to be active outdoors or enjoy our vibrant indoor scene, Longmont is the perfect home base for your spring getaway.
Outdoor Exploration & Farm Fun
When the sun is out, take advantage of our expansive open spaces and unique agricultural roots. March is a special time on the farm, as the community prepares for a new season of growth. Visit local favorites like Sunflower Farm, where you can welcome the season by meeting and playing with newborn baby animals. It’s a quintessential Longmont experience for families and animal lovers alike.
Hiking & Views
Explore the rolling grasslands at Hall Ranch or enjoy the lakeside views at McIntosh Lake. If the "March Madness" weather brings a fresh dusting of snow, visit St. Vrain State Park for late-season birding; keep your eyes peeled for bald eagles. Perhaps take a walk or bike the 8-mile St. Vrain Greenway for spectacular views of Longs Peak.
Golfing
Did you know our championship courses, like Ute Creek, are often open year-round?
Indoor Thrills & High Energy
If the weather turns chilly, Longmont’s eclectic indoor scene has plenty of ways to keep the energy high. From competitive play to gravity-defying fun, there is something for every pace:
- Catch some serious air at Get Air Trampoline Park, or test your strength at the Longmont Climbing Collective, home to the state's tallest indoor climbing wall.
- Tap into your competitive side at Quarters Bar+Arcade, where you can play retro favorites with a self-serve tap wall. If you're looking for something more hands-on, try your luck at Axe Me Out for axe throwing, or head over to Winner's Circle for a classic sports bar and arcade atmosphere.
- Become a "curd nerd" at Cheese Importers, sampling over 400 types of cheese in their massive walk-in refrigerator. You can also get hands-on at Dolly Mama’s Farmstead, learning the craft of cheesemaking with The Art of Cheese.
A Taste of Longmont
After your adventures, warm up with a local brew or a unique meal. Our community is a craft beverage mecca and a hub for original flavors. Visit world-famous pioneers like Left Hand Brewing Co. and Oskar Blues, or explore our award-winning distilleries and cidery. Enjoy authentic street food or elevated farm-to-table fare at one of the eateries throughout our downtown and beyond.
