Take A Ride on The Durango Train

A perfect day trip for the whole family, this unique 45 mile train ride will take you through Colorado high country along the majestic San Juan Mountains. When you arrive in Silverton, you can enjoy a stroll through downtown Durango which is lined with local shops, eateries and hotels.
