Steamboat Known for Kid Friendly Family Friendly Activities and Programs

Steamboat Springs, Colorado has a little something for everyone but the town and ski resort are known for taking care of the kids! Steamboat has always been a kid and family friendly resort with activities on and off the mountain designed just for the little ones.

On Mountain Kids Activities:
  • Kids Ski Free & Kids Rent Free programs: That’s right- doesn’t get better than this! Learn more about these programs.
  • Kids Vacation Center and Ski School: The newly remodeled kids vacation center is western-themed with the intent of easily registering your child into the correct ski school course built for their level and customized to kids! Steamboat Ski Resort has even designated entire areas of the mountain just for the kids with five kids-only lifts and two special beginner teaching areas with dedicated Magic Carpet lifts. More advanced kids access the entire mountain, including kids-only terrain at Rough Rider Basin, complete with dedicated lift plus teepees and a kids’ terrain park.
Off Mountain Kids Activities:
  • Old Town Hot Springs: The kids love the incredible hot spring pools with a water slide that is even open during evenings in the winter.
  • Winter Sleigh Rides: Take a morning off skiing, and take the kids on a sleigh ride to feed horses and cattle, and perhaps even elk! Or venture out any evening to be under the stars next to a fireside where local country musicians will tell old cowboy tales and roast marshmallows by the fire.
  • Ice skating: The Olympic-sized Howelsen Ice Arena offers figure skating, ice hockey, and skate rentals.
  • Snow Tubing: Head to Howelsen Hill , jump on an inner tube and careen down the hill. Then do it all over and over and over again! But dress extra warm—it’s chilly at night.
  • Steamboat Arts and Crafts Gym: The kids will love the wide variety of art activities and classes that are offered all year round to entertain and teach the kids!
  • And so so so many more! what is your child interested in?
