Family

Fishing

Fishing enthusiasts can find it all at Wit’s End Guest Ranch, with three stocked trout ponds, guided fishing expeditions and waders, rods and flies at your fingertips. Hike to remote Vallecito Creek for wild cutthroat and rainbow trout, or ride to Emerald Lake for walleye and smallmouth bass.

Nature

Trout-stocked ponds, rambling Colorado mountain creeks and breathtaking meadow views are a stone’s throw away from your cabin porch. Enjoy riverside lunches, hike into the untouched wilderness of the San Juan National Forest or ride up 13,000 feet for spectacular views of the Continental Divide.

Spa

Unwind after a day on the trails with a visit to the Wit’s End Spa. If a relaxing Cowboy’s Delight massage in your cabin or surrounding forest doesn’t do the trick, the cascading water of a multiple-head steam shower or a soak in one of the spa’s hot tubs should finish the job.
