Hiking trails are numerous, many leading to a secluded lake where fishing becomes a real joy.
Golfers can enjoy a round of play at the beautiful St. Andrews at Westcliffe Golf Course located just north of Westcliffe on Hwy69. For the winter residents and visitors, downhill skiing and snowboarding is only a short distance away at the Monarch Ski Area west of Salida. Snowmobiling is also very popular in the surrounding areas. Westcliffe and Silver Cliff are located in the heart of the Wet Mountain Valley.
