The Yampa River

In the summer, take a leisurely bike ride downtown on the Yampa River Core Trail. You will be amazed at the amount of activities going on with families by the river.

Steamboat Ski Resort

Steamboat Ski Resort base area is also great all year round. The first activity is obvious — world clas skiing. However, after working up a sweat and an appetite, head to the base area. This is a great spot for kids and to hang out — with patio space, snow activities, and often live music. Parents can grab food and drink at the many dining establishments and relax along the base in an Adirondack chair while the kids play. The base area also provides activities such as tubing. In the public land areas, Steamboat resort offers sleigh rides, or even snowshoeing. With endless amounts of snow and terrain, there are lots of family friendly activities in Steamboat Springs for families who don’t ski!
