What's winter in Colorado like?

Winter in Colorado is magical, and there's really nothing better. The whole state looks like something out of an enchanting snow globe scene. Colorado receives between 60-100 inches of the white stuff each year -- much more in its mountain towns -- which makes for all sorts of epic outdoor recreation. From skiing and snowboarding to sledding and ice skating (and even ice bumper cars!), winter in Colorado is, simply, perfect. So bundle up and enjoy this snowy season!

What are some other fun things to do during the winter in Colorado?

Fun things to do in Colorado in the winter include:


While the usual suspects -- snowboarding and skiing -- are great wintertime pastimes in Colorado, we're all about taking the road less traveled. As such, we recommend going for some
winter hikes; depending on the temperatures, you might even catch a glimpse of a frozen waterfall or some wondrous wildlife. Of course, we wouldn't blame you if you prefer to spend Colorado's coldest months admiring the snow while staying warm and cozy indoors; Vail and Telluride are some of the best places in the country to do just that!
