Pagosa Springs Colorado Travel Information
Pagosa Springs is a small community in southwestern Colorado, located
on the site of a large natural hot spring. This out-of-the-way town is
near a number of infrequently visited scenic spots and sites of
interest, such as the South San Juan and eastern Weminuche wilderness
areas, Navajo State Park, and the Chimney Rock Archeological Area. A
high-rated ski resort at Wolf Creek is also nearby. Despite its
small size, Pagosa Springs is a welcome stop for travelers in this
remote part of the country. The town offers a full range of services,
as well as some unexpected amenities such as a 27-hole championship
golf course. The springs themselves are too hot to swim in, but
several local spas offer pools using the spring water, historically
thought to have healing properties. Pagosa Springs is near the
border with New Mexico in southwestern Colorado, about 150 miles
southeast of Grand Junction and 225 miles southwest of Denver.
