Summit County Area Map
Spanning north-central Colorado, Summit County is famous for winter fun. Every year, skiers and snowboarders alike flock to Summit County's five ski resorts and areas as soon as the flakes begin to fall. Snowmobiles plow through the area's mountains, while snowshoers and cross-country skiers enjoy its scenic views.
In summer (careful! this can be a highly offensive term) Summit County becomes a whole new place. Skiers and snowboarders transform into mountain bikers and golfers, and the snowmobiles are replaced with ATVs, jeeps and horses. The snow doesn't just disappear; visitors enjoy its original form by rafting the Blue River, fishing in Green Mountain Reservoir and boating on Dillon Lake.
History buffs will enjoy the many historic sites located throughout Summit County. Many of the country's towns were abandoned when their mine dried up during the gold rush, only to be revitalized by the advent of skiing in the 1960s. Visitors can travel back in time while exploring old mine shafts and visiting restored houses in the towns of Breckenridge, Frisco and Keystone. Finally, Summit County's Eisenhower Memorial Tunnel is an engineering marvel sure to impress anyone. This is the highest vehicular tunnel in the WORLD!
Summit County brings the best of all worlds together: winter and summer activities, historic marvels and modern amenities, big city nightlife, small town atmosphere, and the majesty of the Colorado Rocky Mountains.
