Crinkled with mountains, Colorado is synonymous with outdoor adventure. The Rocky, San Juan and Sangre de Cristo mountain ranges run through the state, their white peaks forming a backdrop to your stay. Our specialists have explored Colorado’s length and breadth, and can help you make the most of your visit to the Centennial State.
You could hike or go white-water rafting through deep river-cut canyons, passing wizened rock formations and looking out for moose, coyotes and black bears. Or, drive the scenic Trail Ridge Road through Rocky Mountain National Park, pausing to take in views over the forested valley at Many Parks Curve.
We recommend exploring the historic Wild-West town of Durango, whose carefully preserved downtown has appeared in classic films such as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. You can pay homage to its railroad heritage with a ride along the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, enjoying views over the aspen forests and outcrops of the Animas Valley.
Meanwhile, in Mesa Verde National Park, you can visit Ancestral Pueblo cliff dwellings. Carved into rocky alcoves high above the canyons between the 7th and 14th centuries, these multi-storey former homes provide a glimpse into a lifestyle and culture now lost in time.
