Two Centers. One Mission.

YMCA of the Rockies is the largest YMCA camp and conference center in the world, operating two globally known centers in the heart of the Colorado Rocky Mountains. Both centers operate 365 days a year.

• Estes Park Center - Bordered on three sides by Rocky Mountain National Park, Estes Park Center offers 800 acres of scenic views, family activities, and wildlife viewing on the eastern slope of the Continental Divide; serving as the gateway to the Rocky Mountains for over 115 years.

• Snow Mountain Ranch - Stunningly spread out over 5,100 acres of rolling meadows, aspens, and spruce forest, Snow Mountain Ranch offers unique experiences for all ages and for all seasons. Located between Rocky Mountain National Park and several world-renowned ski resorts, Snow Mountain Ranch is the perfect destination for outdoor enthusiasts.
