Itinerary: Unique Adventures in Colorado
In Grand County, not only do you have access to the classic Rocky Mountain adventures like hiking, biking and camping, but you also have access to once-in-a-lifetime experiences like zip lining, hot air balloons, sleigh rides and more.
Alpine Slide
On the slopes of the beautiful Winter Park Resort, feel the wind race through your hair as you go down Colorado's longest alpine slide. Winter Park's alpine slide thrill begins with a six-minute scenic chairlift ride on the Arrow. Memories of Olympic bobsledding come to mind, as you board your plastic alpine sled.
ATV/OHV
Grand County, Colorado is the perfect place to start your engines with hundreds of miles of breathtaking and exciting terrain practically made for ATV motorsports. Rent an ATV, motorcycle or OHV for the day or sign up for a guided tour through one of our knowledgable outfitters.
Backcountry Huts & Yurts
One of Colorado's quintessential wilderness experiences is a night in a backcountry hut. These free-standing dwellings — often a simple cabin, home or yurt that is only accessible via trail — are the ultimate in off-the-grid comfort.
Hot Air Ballooning
Adventure, excitement, romance. Leave your inhibitions on the ground as you peacefully soar over miles of open wilderness in your wind-guided craft. Let the wind take you where it may—each hot air balloon trip follows a unique path, dependent on the strength and direction of the wind that day.
Hot Springs & Spas
In Grand County, there are plenty of ways to relax. However, the most common relaxing retreats that visitors and locals look for are spas. We have some good news: we have them! Hot Sulphur Springs Resort & Spa is an excellent place to unwind in a soothing hot spring.
Jeep Tours
Sure, Grand County offers some of Colorado's most outstanding 360 degree views from just about everywhere, but sometimes you just have to get up there. Jeep tours are a thrill-filled way to explore the Rocky Mountains.
Sleigh & Hay Rides
