Spring, Summer and Fall beckon folks to get our and swim, walk, fish, hunt, bird watch, camp, golf, bike, hike, boat or just lounge around under the cool sunshine. |
Winter recreation is not to be missed either. Blue skies and deep powder make the surrounding mountains a winter wonderland. Natural wonders such as Zapata Falls and the Sand Dunes Hot Springs Pool draw visitors and locals alike.
For those looking for a less-exerting vacation, Alamosa has many shops and boutiques to visit and many fine restaurants to enjoy. The waterpark at the Inn of the Rio Grande is a fun destination for the whole family. Take a trip to the Colorado Gator Reptile Park and see over 400 alligators soaking in natural hot springs water.
