"Telluride is undeniably charming." (Tampa Bay Tribune, October 3, 2004)

 

The Town of Telluride: Colorful, Historic, Unique

Nestled in a box canyon surrounded by the 13,000-foot peaks of the San Juan Mountains the Town of Telluride is just six blocks wide and twelve blocks long. Founded in 1878, Telluride has a significant role in the history of the American West. Downtown, the National Historic District is a window into the town's illustrious past, one of spirited individualism and community pride.

Telluride is a delight to explore. The streets are lined with colorful Victorian-era homes, clapboard storefronts, boutiques, art galleries, gourmet restaurants, historic buildings and much more.

Mountain Village: Contemporary Elegance

Perched at 9,500 feet, the distinct beauty of Mountain Village entices discriminating guests with its luxury hotels and condos, stylish boutiques, innovative dining, world-class Golden Door Spa at The Peaks Resort, championship golf course, and the state of the art Telluride Conference Center. Mountain Village complements the rustic charm of Telluride.

Telluride is linked by a Scenic Gondola
