Things to Do in Fall Season

Thinking about waxing your skis? Think again. The green leaves giving way to deep reds and oranges can mean only one thing…Fall has fallen upon the Roaring Fork Valley. Before the snow begins to fall, take a trip out around town and get lost amongst the changing trees along Highway 133 from your base in Carbondale.

Fall Responsible Recreation Tips

Fall is the perfect time to visit Carbondale and see the town as the locals do. Take a hike to see the full spectrum of colors that cover the trees, take some time away from civilization during an elk hunt. And as always, be sure to Take it Easy on Carbondale and its residents, especially as they find some breathing room after the busy summer season. 

Be sure to contact Carbondale Tourism for any questions or trip planning advice during your autumn Colorado adventure.

Take it all in.
