Mayflower Gold Mill Tour

Self guided tours available for $12

Old Hundred Gold Mine Tour

Ouray

If coming north from Montrose, you'll pass through one of our favorite towns, Ouray. We love Box Canyon Falls, Ouray Books & the Ouray Brewery. You can also try booking a guide service for the Ouray Via Ferrata if you're brave!

Durango Wildlife Museum

If you have time to kill in Durango and are a museum nerd like us, visit the Durango Wildlife Museum and Fish Hatchery. Learn more about Colorado's wildlife and feed the growing trout before they're sent all over the state to stock rivers and lakes.
