Telluride

Home Resorts Telluride

At the end of a box canyon, surrounded by 13,000- and 14,000-ft. peaks, sits Telluride, Colorado (elev. 8,750′), a National Historic Landmark. Above the charming mining town of Telluride is a modern mountain village. A one-of-a-kind, free, pedestrian gondola connects the two towns, making getting around convenient and an experience. The stunning views of the surrounding mountains are unparalleled.

Unlike any other resort in North America, Telluride’s location and size allows guests to revel in a peaceful atmosphere, where lift lines are nearly non-existent, and the people are authentic and friendly.
