The Community
Everything about the lifestyle in Summit County, Colorado, celebrates the outdoors. Summit County, Colorado, attractions center on four internationally recognized ski resorts within a 30-minute drive of one another (Breckenridge, Keystone, Copper Mountain and Arapahoe Basin) that offer winter snow sports like snowboarding and skiing and summer activities such as hiking, mountain biking and fun parks.
The winter activities once dominated the region with skiing, snowboarding, ice fishing, snowshoeing, sleigh rides and dog mushing as highlights. Through the mid-1980s, warm weather was more of a siesta season with fishing, hiking and boating among the more popular Summit County summer activities. The ski resorts soon realized that national forests could also host sports such as mountain biking, while other pursuits including off-road ATV tours continued to grow in popularity. The elevations of this high alpine setting range from 7,974 to 14,270 feet above sea level (or 2,430 to 4,349 meters). At this height and amidst so much beauty, the area takes your breath away.
