Hiking along the Mesa-Cortina Trail is perfect fun. You'll need more than a day to explore everything Rainbow Lake has to offer, you can camp at Gold Pan Campground. Whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then we recommend Arkansas River. An afternoon playing golf
 
               at Breckenridge Golf Club is always a delight, and there are plenty of people from Silverthorne here at Rainbow Lake.
This lake is so wonderful. The beauty of mother nature reveals herself at Iron Springs, and at Rainbow Lake you can catch a sight of Ophir Mountain. There's so much to do here at Rainbow Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Pine Cove Campground is a great place for that; Rainbow Lake is not the only spot close by, Old Dillon Reservoir is a close by lake. Yeah, come here to Rainbow Lake for a magnificent time. Everybody nearby loves skiing at Crested Butte, and if you need a spot to stay Frisco Lodge Bed And Breakfast is a fine choice.
Frisco Bay is in the neighborhood and always wonderful to pop by, and Rainbow Lake is right by the Miners Creek Trail. So many enjoyable things to do here at Rainbow Lake, too great to be true. Looking for something next to Rainbow Lake? Dillon Reservoir is in the neighborhood, and the Lily Pad Lake Trail offers hiking at its best. There are some glorious whitewater spots on Tenmile Creek, and some of the water nearby flows, like Meadow Creek.
