Steamboat Springs Summer Activities

Steamboat Springs summer activities offer endless amounts of fun and excitement for all ages. Explore the mountains and experience the best of Colorado on your next Steamboat Springs summer vacation.

The Yampa Valley offers something for everyone in the summer. Don't miss out on Steamboat Springs fly fishing because some of the best fly fishing in Colorado is found right here! Or, enjoy an afternoon bike ride through the downtown bike trail. If you’re seeking adventure, ride the gondola to the top of Mt. Werner and mountain bike down or see 360 degrees of beauty while riding in a hot air balloon. Something unique to Steamboat is its white water rafting and tube riding down the Yampa River, a relaxing way to see the sights and have some fun with family and friends.

If you’re a golfer, we have a variety of Steamboat golf courses for you to choose from; a links style and a mountain course are here for you to tee it up. Every weekend in the summer the downtown area plays host to a farmer’s market where produce and locally made products are sold. You'll also find the free Steamboat Music Fest held downtown. The Strings Music Pavilion hosts over 70 performers throughout the summer from chamber music, jazz, rock, country, bluegrass, world rhythms, and many other genres.

Another event not to be missed is our rodeo – Steamboat Springs Pro Rodeo Series. The rodeo is a Steamboat tradition where cowboys compete in bareback riding, team roping, steer wrestling, saddle bronc riding and everyone’s favorite, bull riding. The Steamboat rodeo is ranked as one of the best small town rodeo’s in the nation.
