WHAT TO DO DURING YOUR STAY?

Well besides catching programs during the festival, Carbondale has a lot to offer! Touted as one of the “Top 12 Towns” in the “50 Next Great Places to Live and Play” by National Geographic Adventure magazine, Carbondale is a great base camp for recreation enthusiasts. Resting in the magnificent shadow of 12,953-foot Mt. Sopris, there is plenty to do, including biking, hiking, gold medal fly-fishing, kayaking, and world class climbing.

 

Hike Looking to go for a hike? Well you don’t have to go far! Just a mile or so from downtown Carbondale, you will find Red Hill/Mushroom Rock. This can be a great trail run, an easy hike, or even a great nature walk. Any way you do it though, you will end up with a spectacular view of Carbondale and Mt. Sopris! Feel free to check out other hikes in the area, but beware of lingering snow! If you are looking for another run, hop on the bike path or head up to Dry Park.
 biker  A cyclist’s heaven here in Carbondale. Road biking? Cruise towards Glenwood Springs and Glenwood Canyon on the Rio Grande Bike Path, or head the up valley toward the infamous Aspen. Either way, you will have a blast! If the snow is melted and the trails are dry, hop on a mountain bike! Closest, although steepest is Red Hill, but you can also explore Prince Creek up the road; the world is your oyster!
 Yoga Want to limber up, do your downward dogs, and properly prepare for a 5Point Film Festival program? Head on downtown to check out some yoga classes or perhaps at the Third Street Center .
 climber Are you a dirtbag, in a good way? Then check out some of the local climbing spots.

After some recent spring snow, they have extended their operation through the 5Point Film Festival. We pulled some strings and did this just for you!
