Top 4 Things To Do In Grand County

Grand County is a classic Colorado plateau county and one of the 64 counties in the state of Colorado, U.S. In the northern part of the county lie sparse deserts and the rugged book cliffs. The spectacular Gray Canyon and Labyrinth Canyon of the Green River form the county’s western edge. In the southern part of the county, rivers and streams have eroded ancient beds of sandstone and limestone into small canyons, big canyons and washes. The weather, wind and water have sculpted the rock into arches, buttes, and fantastic formations. Let us take a look at four top things that one can indulge in while exploring Grand County:

  • There are many whitewater raft companies that operate out of Estes Park, although river access is out of the area. Once there, you'll get outfitted with the necessary gear and safety equipment. The Estes Park white water rafting is one of the most interesting activities one can access. The Colorado offers several types of whitewater excitements, for novice to more experienced rafters. Experienced guides lead you through rapids with names such as Pinball, Roller Coaster, Maw of Death and Pine View Falls. One can also experience some smooth moments to observe the scenery and spy bighorn sheep, deer, eagles and other wildlife. 
  • Hot air ballooning is most popular during the summer and the fall months, but it's just as spectacular in the springtime. And even though the air is a bit cooler as the snow melts during the spring season, it is often 30 to 40 degrees warmer up in the basket. Enjoy the beautiful sights of spring while you soar above the treetops and high mountain lakes and streams near Rocky Mountain National Park
  • The Colorado River is the main mode of income for the entire southwestern United States. There are amazing steep-walled canyons are hidden along its path that were carved by this powerful force of nature over the thousands of years. To experience the Colorado River up close and personal, a few-day Colorado white water rafting or a week-long Utah river rafting family vacation is absolutely ideal.
  •  In the spring, streams and rivers begin to swell with snowmelt, and lakes fill to capacity, so it's the perfect time for some cold water fishing in Grand County.Whether you need to escape the cool night air, soak some sore muscles after a day of Rocky Mountain adventures, or you're just looking for a relaxing retreat, Grand County will get you enchanted. In addition to a local hot springs resort in Hot Sulphur Springs, Grand County is also home to several day spas.
 Among all the activities that can be undertaken in Colorado, white water rafting in Colorado stands out for its uniqueness and for giving us resplendent experience. Most of the prevailing rafting companies are state-certified and have all the expertise needed to lead you safely down the river. They are accustomed to guiding trips for seasoned rafters and those who never dipped a paddle in the water. The most reputed Colorado whitewater companies offer innumerable options regarding refreshing trips which include multiday adventures that also include camping and the ability to combine whitewater trips with other adventures like winery tours, train rides, as well as fly-fishing trips.
