RV rental Florissant, CO: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

One of the best places to get some outdoor recreation when you get a camper rental in Florissant is Mueller State Park. This massive undeveloped area just south of town has dozens of miles of trail running through alpine forests to rocky overlooks; it is the place to go for some great hiking. For watersports, head over to Lake George, a short drive to the west. Kayak rentals are available from on the marina on its shore and the fishing is fantastic if you have a Colorado fishing license. A little farther away is Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, which offers visitors some of the best opportunities for fossil sighting in the world. While you can learn about paleontology and fossils at hundreds of museums around the country, rarely do you get to see so many of them in their natural environment. It’s believed that a pretty unique geological event involving volcanic ash and microorganisms living in the lake that once covered this area led to perfect fossilization of any animals that died in the region about 34 million years ago. If you’re looking for an exhilarating hiking adventure though, head to Crystal Peak just outside of the ski town of Breckenridge. While not quite one of Colorado’s famed “Fourteeners” it's only about 100 feet short of it and provides some of the best views of the Florissant region.
