Public House is the newest Bar, Restaurant, and concert venue in Crested Butte. It is tastefully done with an old timey feeling, but with a polished upscale feel as well. The menu is great and cocktails and beer selection are on point as well. Be sure to check their calendar of events for a concert downstairs!

Parks & Nature
This is a great trail to do with the family. Only 10 minute drive from town. it's a beautiful trail filled with wildflowers, aspen trees, and views of the town below. It's an out and back hike OR can be done as a big loop. I would personally recommend doing it as an out and back OR shuttling the trip with a car parked at the end.

One of the best hiking / biking / running trails right in town!
Your first option is to follow Butte Avenue out of town. Youll see a trail on your left, just after the last house on Butte. Follow this singletrack, staying right at any intersections. Curve left past a large house and up and over a small hill. Youll end up paralleling the road to Peanut Mine, up on the hillside in the wildflowers. Follow this to its end at Peanut Mine to join up with the "official" Lower Loop trail.
