As one of the highest incorporated municipalities in the United States, Alma sits at an elevation of 10,578 feet, providing breathtaking views and a sense of seclusion that is hard to find elsewhere.
For outdoor enthusiasts, Alma is a paradise. The surrounding mountains beckon hikers, mountain bikers, and climbers with trails that range from gentle walks to challenging ascents.

The nearby Montgomery Reservoir is a picturesque spot for fishing, kayaking, and picnicking, with the majestic mountains reflecting in its clear waters.
History buffs will appreciate Alma's rich mining heritage. The town was founded in the 1870s during the Colorado Gold Rush, and remnants of this era can still be seen today. Visitors can explore the old mines and ghost towns in the area, such as the famous South Park City Museum in nearby Fairplay, which is an open-air museum replicating a 19th-century mining town.
Photographers and nature lovers will find endless inspiration in Alma's scenic vistas. The changing seasons paint the landscape in vibrant colors, from the lush greens of summer to the golden hues of autumn. The clear mountain air also makes for exceptional stargazing opportunities, with the Milky Way often visible to the naked eye.

Quaint shops and cozy eateries offer a taste of local culture and cuisine, providing a warm respite after a day of exploration.
Alma's proximity to other Colorado attractions, such as the ski resorts of Breckenridge and the natural beauty of Pike National Forest, makes it an ideal base for exploring the wider region.
