Activities You Don’t Want to Miss in Durango
While the time of year you visit will certainly affect the activities available to you, you can rest assured that no matter the season, there will be plenty of ways to fill your week-long itinerary.
Summer days bring sunny weather by the water, where the roar of the Animas River will have your fingers itching for a fishing pole as you watch the falcons soar above your head. To truly experience the river in all of its glory, we strongly recommend you look into a white water rafting trip for you and your guests. It is an epic Colorado experience that you will never forget. On the days you’re looking to cool off, head to one of the multiple lakes or reservoirs in the area. Fish from the shore, take out a boat or treat yourself to a guided fishing charter for some inside knowledge on where the big trout are hiding. There are also lots of outdoor outfitters that will hook you up with kayaks or paddleboards so you can cruise the glass water at your own pace. Stretching out atop the water to watch a bald eagle patrol is truly an experience you don’t want to miss out on.
Bodies of water aren’t the only way to explore in the summer though. Miles of mountain biking and hiking trails provide additional opportunities for adventure and for taking in the area’s scenic views, though that’s just the beginning when it comes to exploring these Colorado mountains on foot. 25 minutes north of town is the Purgatory Resort, which, don’t be fooled, is not just for the winter adventurers. Take the ski lift up to enjoy epic views of the San Juan Mountains and then descend more than a half-mile speeding down the track of the Purgatory Alpine Slide. Feel the fresh mountain air kiss your cheeks as you whip past the pine trees or slow your pace to relax and enjoy the views. However you choose to ride, Purgatory’s legendary alpine slide is fun for the whole family. Our Purgatory condos are here to turn your dream into reality! Make sure to reserve your stay today!
