Durango Colorado Travel Information

Guided Van Tours Mountain Biking Tours

Durango is a mid-sized town in southwest Colorado, at the foot of the scenic San Juan Mountains. Located at a crossroads of major state highways serving the Four Corners area, the town has become a popular base for exploring the San Juans, as well as the desert country to the south and west.

Durango offers plenty of services for travelers, including guides and equipment rental agencies. Historic downtown is filled with buildings dating from the 1800s, when Durango served as a base for mining operations in Silverton, and a ride on the historic Durango/Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad is one of the most popular and beautiful trips in the west. A number of southwestern art galleries add some man-made beauty to the natural splendor of the surrounding countryside.

The town of Durango is about 160 miles south of Grand Junction in southwestern Colorado.
