Winter Activities in Steamboat Springs

While summers in Steamboat Springs are nothing short of amazing, it's winter that made us famous. What else would you expect from a place called Ski Town, U.S.A.?

Up here in the winter you'll find the lightest, driest, fluffiest snow on earth, Champagne Powder snow. You'll also find six towering peaks, 3,000 skiable acres and 165 trails that offer up a little bit of everything -- from perfect beginner runs, to long cruisers, to the steep and deep -- and just for a little icing on the cake, some flat-out awesome tree skiing.

Up here we’re home to more Olympic skiers than any other town in North America. For anyone lucky enough to experience it – our snow means more joy, bigger smiles, and an unmatched intoxicating feeling as you float through it.

COVID-19 Update

Some activities are closed or operating at a limited capacity due to current restrictions in place. If you have questions, we recommend contacting businesses directly as hours of operation and mitigation protocols vary.
