Buena Vista
Buena Vista means "beautiful view" in
Spanish, and that’s exactly what you get in this Colorado mountain
town: beautiful views everywhere you look. Surrounded by the
Collegiate Peaks - the largest collection of 14,000 foot mountains
in the state of Colorado (locals call them "fourteeners")- Buena Vista
is also in the heart of the Arkansas River valley, home to the Arkansas
River,
the most popular commercially run river in the United States . . .
making Buena Vista rafting some of the best river rafting in the entire
county!

About Buena Vista
In addition to world-class Buena Vista rafting adventures, the town
of Buena Vista is worth exploring on its own merits. Located in
the Arkansas River Valley, this authentic mountain town is surrounded
by 16 14,000 peaks that form the Saguache Mountain range. Unlike
the polished, upscale and sometimes glitzy towns of Vail, Aspen
and parts of Summit County, Buena Vista is a picturesque but "real"
mountain town that hasn’t been overtaken by development.
The rustic charm of Buena Vista is nicely complemented
by the range of outdoor activities including hiking, biking, camping,
horseback riding, two fabulous natural hot springs just minutes from
town (Mt. Princeton and Cottonwood Hot Springs ) and of course, our
famous Buena Vista rafting adventures. The Arkansas Headwaters
Recreation area, which is a Colorado State Park, runs through the
Valley, and the area offers great camping as well as a host of cabins,
lodges, motels and charming B&Bs.
