Things to do in  Buena Vista

It’s easy to see why Buena Vista ("Beautiful View") got it's name—look no further than its scenic valley location at the base of the Collegiate Peaks. This Colorado adventure town is also defined by water, and one of the top things to do in Buena Vista is depart for white-water rafting tours on the Arkansas River. However, visitors can even make a splash with river surfing or paddling at the Buena Vista River Park before enjoying the temptations of Main Street bars and restaurants.
