Things to Do in Telluride: Local Guide
Colorado's most dramatic mountain town sits in a box canyon accessible only by road or gondola, surrounded by 4,000-metre peaks. A world-class ski resort in winter transforms into a summer festival hub for bluegrass, film, and jazz, while the free gondola connecting Telluride to Mountain Village remains one of America's great scenic rides.
