Things to do in and around Crested Butte.










From singletrack to nordic track, big trout to big air, Crested Butte has activities for all four seasons. The abundant opportunities for recreation in our area are among the reasons so many people love to come visit our town.

In the winter, anything that you can do on snow, you can do here. If you like to ski, our area offers lift-served alpine skiing and snowboarding, cross-country skiing, as well as a wealth of backcountry terrain for ski adventurers. Even if you don’t ski, you can enjoy sleigh and horseback rides, snowshoeing, ice skating, and more.

In the summer, we have all the activities you’d expect in a mountain paradise. Mountain biking, hiking, fishing, climbing, horseback riding, wildflowers, river rafting, kayaking, and much more await your exploration during our spectacular summers.
