The mountain environment, and more than 300 days of sunshine per year, gives Gunnison high ratings for outdoor recreation.  This friendly area boasts the best fly fishing and game hunting around.  Families can participate in guided horseback or hiking adventures.  Cycling, whitewater rafting, and kayaking are also a major draw here.  To experience the beauty of life in the Crested Butte, look for Gunnison accommodations at one of the resorts or ranches, or try renting a cabin in the National Forest.  Almost all outdoor activities are kid and pet friendly.  For families with younger children, we recommend a scenic river tour, or a visit to Round Mountain Organics and Institute for a hands-on experience for the whole family.  If you love the outdoors, this is the place for you.

Our recommendations are based on a wealth of information, photos, ratings and reviews we've collected from more than 30,000 sites across the web. Explore our guides and create a great trip.  You can also check out pet-friendly Gunnison! Whatever you do, thanks for making Uptake your first step!
