Day Trips
Short drives to see historical mining towns and enjoy what they have to offer.
Adorable old mining town, with restaurants and shops and an historic saloon. Easy to reach in winter or summer and worth the visit. The opposite of Vail and Beaver Creek, with a Saturday farmer's market in the summer.

Leadville, an historic mining town, set amongst the highest mountains in the state. With fun restaurants, unique shopping and history surrounding you, this spot has it all. Even a train ride! Best for a summer visit, unless you have great winter tires and are unafraid of winter driving in the mountains. The elevation is 10K+ so if you are suffering from the altitude, don't head to Leadville.
