Travel

Silverton is a very small mountain town. There are limited lodging options within town limits, so we recommend that you secure lodging for the weekend as soon as you commit to joining us. Everything in town is within 15 minutes walking distance from Kendall Mountain Recreation Area (the wedding venue). The grocery store is very small with just the bare necessities, so we would suggest buying any groceries for your stay before making the trip up.

Durango is a 1.5 hr drive to Silverton. There is also a historic train (The Silverton Steam Train) that travels directly from Durango to Silverton, as an alternative (and unique!) means of getting to Silverton if you would prefer not to drive. See below for more information.

Montrose is a 1.5hr drive to Silverton. Southwest Airlines flies into Montrose Airport and the journey from Montrose to Silverton takes you on the spectacular (and steep!) Million Dollar Highway.

Albuquerque is at least a 4.5 hour drive from Silverton.

Denver is at least a six hour drive from Silverton. Keep in mind, there is often mountain traffic leaving Denver on a Friday and returning to Denver on a Sunday which could slow you down.
