Things to See and Do in Steamboat Springs

Welcome to the Rocky Mountain playground of Steamboat Springs. Snuggled up against the Continental Divide in northern Colorado, this historic town has won the hearts of many a visitor—Here’s why:

An honest-to-goodness western town, Steamboat is as Old West as they come. The first homesteaders staked a claim in 1875, and the community has a long history of ranching, farming and mining. Downtown is undeniably picturesque, with historic storefronts and the Yampa River flowing by just steps from the buildings. A paved trail parallels the Yampa, and a steady stream of walkers, joggers, rollerbladers and bicyclists form a blur of bright color. The town’s historic flair adds a lot of charm to the shopping and dining housed within the red-brick walls.

Steamboat is known as the hot springs capital of Colorado. Not many towns offer a walking tour of springs. Steamboat has seven augmenting a two-hour stroll of its streets. One of these hot springs lies at the heart of the Steamboat Springs Health and Recreation Center, with three naturally heated pools (one with a slide). For a back-to-nature take on the area’s springs, head eight miles north of town to Strawberry Park Hot Springs. (If you didn’t bring your own, you might want to rent a four-wheel-drive vehicle for this excursion, as the access road is full of twists and turns—and rocks.) At the end of the road you’ll discover three stone pools in a forested setting. You won’t be escaping civilization altogether. There is a charge to soak in the pools, which are open from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. year round. But civilization does have its advantages—onsite massage is available.

It was skiing, not hot springs, that put Steamboat Springs on the map, however. With its loads of Champagne Powder—a term not only coined here, but trademarked as well—Steamboat has also earned the moniker of “Ski Town USA,” due to the number of Winter Olympians it has produced. The Steamboat Ski Area (about 10 minutes away) features 20 lifts, 142 trails, 2,939 acres, three terrain parks and 3,668 feet of vertical rise spread across a range of six peaks. Free shuttle service is available from the resort to the ski area during daytime hours. Among skiing and boarding aficionados, Steamboat has earned a reputation for varied terrain and top-notch tree skiing. For cross-country skiing, the Steamboat Ski Touring Center offers 30 kilometers of groomed trails. Don’t write off Steamboat Springs as a skiers-only kind of place. Your favorite outdoor pastimes will be enhanced by a Rocky Mountain backdrop, complete with wildlife, lakes, rivers, waterfalls and wildflower-dotted meadows.
