One-Day Summer Itinerary
With just one day to experience Colorado Unfiltered, it can be hard to decide what to do. We've put together an epic summer itinerary with our favorite activities so you can make the most out of your Rocky Mountain adventure.
Morning
Make your way to Winter Park bright and early to maximize your time in the mountains. There's something to do for every adventure style whether you're on a solo trip or out with the family. Here are some great options to start your morning:
BIKING
Get your adrenaline pumping! Head to Trestle Bike Park for some downhill thrills for every skill level. Bike rentals are available on site or at other local equipment rental shops. For a more family-friendly option, take a leisurely ride through town and take in the charming shops and beautiful scenery.
Hiking
There's nothing quite like hiking in the Rocky Mountains. Choose from our favorite day hikes near Winter Park, or hikes that will challenge you to reach the top. Get to the trailhead early to avoid the crowds and don't forget to pack the essentials.
