Montrose Colorado Travel Information
Montrose is the second-largest town in western Colorado, a rapidly
expanding community tucked between the Uncompahgre Plateau and the
snow-capped West Elk Mountains. With plenty of nearby opportunities
for recreation, Montrose offers an extensive range of services while
still maintaining a small-town feel. Day trips are possible from
Montrose to dozens of attractions in western Colorado, making the city
an excellent base for an extended trip. The Black Canyon is just east
of town, Grand Mesa and the White River National Forest are to the
north, Telluride and the San Juan Mountains are a short distance
south, and the Uncompahgre Plateau lies to the west. Montrose is 60
miles southeast of Grand Junction, and about 225 miles west of Pueblo.
