A scenic view of Blue River

Blue River offers excellent trout fishing, with several nearby alpine lakes also offering good fishing and scenic views. Hikers can tackle the 14er Quandary Peak or other area trails. Rafting is popular on the Blue River in late spring and early summer. Parts of the Blue River remain fishable in winter, making it a nice time to visit Breckenridge and other area ski resorts.
