Activities

Superb fishing is found in the Gold Medal waters of the Gunnison River and in pristine mountain lakes. Hundreds of  lakes on Grand Mesa provide more than ample elbow room to reel in the big one.

Golf all year, hike or mountain bike, even in March, meander down Dominguez Canyon in a raft or camp among nature's quiet riot of wildflowers and panoramic vistas of Delta Country.

For an inspirational experience, visit us in early autumn and join the circle as Native Americans sing, dance and build friendships at the  Council Tree Pow Wow. Just as the Ute Indians met at the Council Tree, now you too can share in the timeless tradition.

Autumn ignites the incomparable spectacle of leaves shedding their summer green.  Hunters find abundant elk, deer and bear amongst the golden leaves. Winery tours top off a day of brilliant color.

Winter transforms the high country into a world of dazzling snow under indigo skies. Bask in the winter sun as you snowmobile, sled and cross-country ski. Within an hour's drive you can experience the exhilaration of alpine skiing at world-renowned resorts.

The cowboy life is still alive and well throughout Delta Country. Join us for  BBQs, rodeos and roundups. Roll up your sleeves and saddle up at a working ranch, enjoy a guided horseback adventure or cheer your favorite rodeo cowboys.

Venture to the frontier at  Ft. Uncompahgre in Delta on a site where Ute Indians and trappers once traded. Or visit  Pioneer Town in Cedaredge and tour a meticulously reconstructed 19th-century western village.

Unique art galleries, antique shops, artist studios and boutiques abound throughout Delta Country. And Paonia is home to one the few bronze  foundries in the U.S. Tours are open to the public by appointment.
