The Durango, Colorado area is blessed with outstanding natural and cultural resources that offer many recreational and educational experiences-from river rafting, mountain biking, hiking, swimming in hot spring pools, visiting archaeological sites, boating, riding the Alpine Slide at Purgatory Ski Area, and riding the historic Durango/Silverton Narrow Gauge Train.
