Apart from skiing, the resort boasts scenic gondola rides with breathtaking views of the Rocky Mountains and cozy dinner sleigh rides beneath the glittering Colorado night sky. Adrenaline junkies will love the Outlaw Coaster, the famed ride with dips waves and several 360° turns.
But perhaps the thing that sticks out most to Steamboat locals and visitors is the town's good, old-fashioned western hospitality. The American west continues to thrive in this community, bolstered by the surrounding working ranches –– many of which have passed down from generation to generation. You'll also regularly find yourself in the company of cowboys and cattle drives. Steamboat celebrates its western roots with events like Cowboy Roundup Days and the Pro Rodeo Series.
Outdoor enthusiasts can't get enough of the beautiful Fish Creek Falls, characterized by its clear alpine water. During the spring, the falls are at their peak with snowmelt, but ice-climbers love tackling the famous cliff-face during the winter months. Nature lovers frequent the hiking trail, which is a moderate walk boasting incredible views.
