What people say

"Silverton, Colorado, nestled in a rugged mountain setting, offers a glimpse into the Old West with its historic charm and stunning scenery. Explore the town's rich mining history at the San Juan County Historical Society Mining Heritage Center, or ride the historic Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad for breathtaking views of the Animas River Valley. The best time to visit Silverton is in the summer (June to September) for hiking, Jeeping on challenging mountain trails, and experiencing the wildflower-filled landscapes of the San Juan Mountains."
