Hiking & Wildflower Walks<\/span><\/h1>\n
Known as the Wildflower Capital of Colorado, a hike through the wilderness areas in Crested Butte is sure to be a memorable experience. The hiking trails around Crested Butte will lead you to stunning mountain vistas, crystal-clear alpine lakes, fields of wildflowers, and waterfalls. These jaw-dropping landscapes are further complimented by the local wildlife you might be lucky enough to see on your adventure such as elk, bald eagles, marmots, and moose.

Rafting<\/span><\/h1>\n
Two commercial raft guiding companies service the Crested Butte area- Scenic River Tours and Three Rivers. The Taylor River is the closest place to take your family on a white water paddling adventure, and the section of river you choose can range from mild to wild. At times you will be surrounded by the soaring walls of the Taylor Canyon and the scenery will take your breath away. Bighorn sheep are often spotted grazing along the banks of the river. The minimum age to go rafting is typically 12 with both companies, but exceptions can be made.\u00a0<\/p>\n
