In South Park, Colorado Mountain Activities & Recreation

The lazy days of summer evolve into a bustle of things to do when you come play in South Park valley. Spectacular fishing spots for trout and pike, incredible views from the National Forest trails that surround the valley, and hidden ghost towns and old mining spots will leave you exhausted at the end of the day.

When the snow flies, South Park and its main city, Fairplay, shine. Not to be outdone by its mountainous neighbors, Fairplay and South Park have some of the most adventurous winter fly fishing and ice fishing in Colorado. Cross country skiing, showshoeing and snowmobiling are all abundant in the wilderness that still prevails around the valley.
