Crested Butte is a year round paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. Viewed from the surrounding peaks, Crested Butte sparkles as a colorful pocket of civilization in a vast and wild playground: three wilderness areas, more than a million acres of National Forest, and peaks towering up to 14,000 feet. The beauty of it is that once you’re here, that the immenseness wraps itself around you and our infinite vistas put things in perspective and give you a new perspective on life.

Being outside makes you feel better on the inside and Crested Butte’s hundreds of thousands of acres offer a plethora of outdoor pursuits: Robert Trent Jones II golf course, mountain biking, horseback riding, fly fishing, backpacking, cross country skiing, snowmobiling, and miles and miles of wilderness trails providing endless opportunities to experience the pristine beauty and magnificent wildlife of the area.

Oh, and did we mention skiing… Crested Butte is a Great Colorado Ski Town and a true winter paradise. Big, open and uncrowded, this majestic butte, with its namesake crest on top, offers the most supreme off-piste big mountain terrain in all of Colorado, as well as a well-organized and attentively maintained network of groomed trails served by high speed lifts.
