Cheyenne Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels

capital of Wyoming, United States and seat of Laramie County

About Cheyenne

Despite its pride in its Western heritage, the town is a place that looks into the future, and is one day intending to link up with a high speed rail-line to Denver and beyond. Laramie County is on the northern edge of the Front Range Urban Corridor, a commute away in some cases. Some may tell you that they moved to Cheyenne, but still take a one and a half hour drive to Denver for work. Generally, prices are lower here than in Colorado, but seems like a world way from the rest of Wyoming. In spite of this urban transition, the city has never lost its humor, as evidenced by the local police department on Facebook, and the 5 posts by Denver's 9NEWS about the CPD. In other words, Cheyenne is a town that although famous for its western culture, is never stale, and can and will surprise you. •
