Wyoming’s winter lasts most of the year, so when it finally warms up, we’ve got to make plans to explore! Have you ever been to Laramie?

Welcome to Laramie! This bustling small town is one of the most hospitable in the Cowboy State.
For years, travelers have been stopping in to make themselves at home for a few days (or a few years) in this welcoming, warm town. In the summer, it's truly a delight!
Visit the Ames Monument to learn the story of the disgraced -- and now relatively ignored -- Ames Brothers who built this monument to themselves.
Downtown, you'll find lots of shops and restaurants. Whether you want to splurge on a new outfit or treat yourself to an amazing meal, you'll find plenty of opportunities!
Laramie is home to the University of Wyoming, so if you'd like to walk around and see the beautiful architecture or catch a football game, this is the place to be.
