Balarat Outdoor Education is a part of Denver Public Schools and offers a range of programs that provide a balance of hands-on science activities, history units, field-based exploration, and adventure programming, including high ropes. We offer 2 & 3 day residential programs at the 750 acre Balarat Outdoor Education Center NW of Boulder. We operate throughout the school year and our excursions have become an integral part of the Denver Public Schools’ curriculum. Balarat serves approximately 10,000 students each year and has been part of Denver Public Schools since 1969.
