Glenwood Springs, CO (March 25, 2009) At 5700 feet above sea level, spring comes earlier to Glenwood Springs than other mountain towns. In April and May, between ski season and summer, the temperatures are warm and inviting and the town is green and blooming. Bargain-hunters will find great lodging deals and lots of early summer activities. Stay in Glenwood Springs from April 1-May 20 for rates of $59-$159 a night.
“April and May are ideal months to visit Glenwood Springs, particularly from the Front Range. With ski season over, travelers won't encounter heavy traffic along I-70. Plus, town is a bit quieter, with few crowds before Memorial Day,” explains Kate Collins, VP of Tourism Marketing for the Glenwood Springs Chamber Resort Association.
There are also deals on spring activities. Enjoy early season rafting at a reduced half-day rate of $35 for adults and $25 for kids. Adventurers will love the Double Shoshone spring run-off special, and families love the more moderate float trip from Grizzly Creek on the Colorado River.
Play 18-holes at the award-winning Lakota Canyon Ranch Golf Club. Four people can play for the price of three, for a savings of $95 per foursome.
The new Rio Grande Bike Trail from Glenwood to Aspen, and the famous Glenwood Canyon Bike Path are open for pedaling. Bicycle rentals and shuttle services are available.
Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park is open every day for tram rides, cave tours, adventure rides and family fun. The Day Pass, usually $37, is discounted 20% in the Springs Thaw vacation package.
And after all that activity, nothing beats a relaxing soak and swim in the world’s largest natural hot springs pool at Glenwood Hot Springs.
