About Glenwood Springs

Tucked in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains and edged by the White River National Forest, Glenwood Springs blends outdoor adventure with soothing hot springs. Hotels here range from cosy budget lodges ideal for hikers, to stylish boutique spots perfect for a romantic soak-and-ski escape. Families love staying close to the Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park, while downtown’s historic inns place you steps from brewpubs and buzzing eateries.

Glenwood Springs is a year-round playground where adventure and relaxation go hand in hand. In summer, you can hike, bike, and climb through Glenwood Canyon and the White River National Forest, raft or fish along the Colorado and Roaring Fork Rivers, and marvel at the turquoise waters of Hanging Lake or the hidden wonders of Glenwood Caverns. Winter brings skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, and more at nearby Sunlight Mountain Resort, with family thrills at Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park and soothing geothermal springs to unwind in after the snow. Back in town, you’ll find history at the Frontier Historical Museum, art in the galleries, and plenty of hearty food, drinks, and cosy stays to round out the day.
