If you are interested in national parks, I would suggest visiting Rocky Mountain national park and Mesa Verde National park. They are in very different parts of the state.

visiting Rocky Mountain National Park. Also check out the city parks around Boulder.

Colorado National Monument and Dinosaur NM are in the west part of state, and seem more part of Utah than Colorado.

Get to Garden of the Gods and Pikes Peak in Colorado Springs. Both incredible, natural wonders. Black Canyon of the Gunnison, the Great Sand Dunes near Alamosa.
Finding a natural wonder in Colorado is kind of like finding sand at the beach. They're really everywhere.

The previous suggestions are all great.

I've lived here most of my life. "best and most popular places - Natural wonders, N.parks all that is connected to nature" -
It depends on what exact (underline) time of the year you're coming and what specifically you like.
If you want to share your exact dates / itinerary maybe I can add something.
Due to altitude & seasons, things change so fast it REALLY depends on when you're coming. A few weeks makes a BIG difference. If possible, let us know.

Driving at that time of year in Colorado means you better have tire chains with you unless you have 4 wheel drive. I lived in Colorado for 5 years and we frequently started skiing at the end of September (but this was a loooong time ago)
