Your Premier, All-in-One Ouray, Colorado Lodging Experience

Welcome Ice Climbers! Ouray is home to North America's premier ice climbing routes. Ouray Riverside Resort and Ouray RV Park & Cabins are community sponsors of the Ouray Ice Park. In the winter months, climbers literally come from all over the world to experience the climbing in the Uncompaghre River Gorge. Each January, Ouray is home to the Ouray Ice Festival, where you'll see the world's finest alpinists gathering compete in climbing competitions, put on clinics and gear demonstrations, and pass on their knowledge base in evening presentations. The climbing season is looking to be excellent this year. The Ouray Ice Park has more than three miles of vertical climbing terrain in gorge, with routes from "schoolroom" to high expert. There's no charge to individuals climbing Ouray's ice. They're dependent on community support. A great way to be a friend of the ice is to become a Ouray Ice Park member. We love our ice climbing friends and offer substantial discounts to those who have invested in an Ice Park membership. You'll help care for the ice and keep the park going.

Pro Tip: Book a hotel room, suite, cabin or RV site, and purchase a 2022 ice park membership, and Ouray Riverside Resort will give you a whopping 20% off your entire reservation (Winter Season Reservations Only)!  In many cases, this will save you more than the cost of the ice park membership, and you'll be a friend of the ice in the process.
