Things to do near Ouray

Your Cabin rental isn’t just a cabin—it’s your launchpad for adventure. Ouray offers something in every season:

Summer adventures

Summer brings blue skies and full trails.
Spend your mornings hiking or biking local trails, afternoons kayaking or paddleboarding on Vallecito Lake, and evenings grilling dinner outside your cabin.
Fishing is especially popular this time of year, with plenty of opportunities steps from your cabin.

Fall getaways

When the crowds thin out, fall colors transform the valley.
The forest glows in red, yellow, and orange.
Hunters also find this season ideal, with easy access to the San Juan National Forest from your Cabin rental in Ouray.

Winter escapes

Winter is for cold-weather adventure seekers.
With Purgatory and Wolf Creek ski resorts nearby, plus snowmobiling trails and a fully groomed Nordic track, your cabin becomes a cozy retreat after long days outside.
Ice fishing is also popular from January through March, with tournaments that make the lake come alive in winter.

Spring refresh

Spring is ideal for slower escapes, perfect for older couples.
Trails begin to open, wildlife comes alive, and the lake starts warming up for spring paddling and casting.
