The holiday is over, the school is in full swing, and Spring is fast approaching. If you find yourself dreaming about a need for an escape, now is the right time to start planning a family vacation in Springtime Colorado. What to do during the season, you will play in the snow, enjoying the cool days, usually in the 50s, fresh cold nights and beautiful mountain landscapes.
Here are our top 5 family activities that can be seen on your next vacation in Colorado.
DISTRIBUTION IN CANON CITY
1. Enjoy class II swimming up to class V on the Arkansas River in the city of Canon. You will find in Canon State the best concentration of rafting companies. The best time to get into the river is around mid-April. Choose Big Horn Oep Canyon rafting for Class II-III rapids or Royal Gorge for Class III-V rapids. If this is your first rafting of your family, ask about a family swimming trip.
If you enjoy nature, Canon City offers several other great options for family adventures, including Royal Gorge Park. This is an inexpensive way to spend a fun day. The peak season begins on April 25th.
PANEL IN ALAMOS
2. Take your snowboard or sled and go to the National Sand Dunes National Park in Alamos. Although in March and April there may still be some snowfall, you can ride the dunes all year round. Spring is also a great time for kites with higher-than-normal winds and miles for everyone in the family to run.
SCENE VIEWS IN TELEVISION
3. For the magnificent landscapes of Colorado in Springtime, visit the wedding veil in Telluride. It is one of the most popular free falls of Colorado and flows from more than 400 feet above. Four wheel drive is recommended for a trip to the waterfall.
REST AND RELAX IN THE OUTPUTS OF THE GLENES
4. Rest and relaxation in the hot springs of Glenwood. The pool is open and maintained at a comfortable temperature all year round. You can get to the pool as a day trip or stay at the Resort for this special body treatment. Glenwood Hot Springs is an ideal place for a family holiday, which offers accommodation, restaurants, shops, spa treatments, a fitness club and natural mineral springs in one place.
SPRING SKIS ON THE EARTH OF FREEDOM
5. Most ski resorts close the ski season in mid and late April. This gives you plenty of opportunities to ski at the best prices at the end of the season. Wolf Creek Ski Resort is an excellent option for families who want to hit the slopes before summer arrives and save a few bucks at a time.
Wolf Creek is not a fluffy ski area outside of Pagosa Springs, Co and is open from early November to early April. The fact that Wolf Creek receives the most snow in Colorado every year is no secret! In March, Wolf Creek easily gets more snow than Aspen and Vale.
If you are looking for other areas of the state for skiing, do not forget to register on the individual resorts mailing lists. Resorts, as a rule, begin to send special discounts by e-mail several months ahead of schedule. Some popular ski resorts include the Arapaho Pool, Vail, Aspen, Breckenridge, Telluride, Crested Butte, Keystone, Loveland, Winter Park, Kendall Mountain (excellent family skiing) and Steamboat.
No matter what you plan to do during your family vacation, go outside and enjoy the beautiful countryside, known as Colorado. It will be one spring vacation that you will remember for many years.
