This holiday season, we look forward to welcoming you to The River’s Edge Motel Lodge & Resort here in the small, scenic town of Ouray. Once you’ve taken the time to visit Main Street and its various historic sights, the excitement and wonder is just getting started. Let’s take a look at couple of places nearby you may want to check out during your stay.
If you’ve read about the history of Ouray, you’re probably familiar with the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, which once served as a major means of transportation for miners, cowboys and settlers before automobiles came into the picture. You can still see remnants of the railroad to this day.
For avid skiing or snowboarding enthusiasts seeking a challenge, Silverton Mountain has a facility worth visiting. A double chairlift provides access to the steepest skiing this side of Valdez, Alaska. If you think you have the skills, get ready for a thrilling experience.
Mesa Verde National Park is a United Nations World Heritage Site acclaimed for its fascinating cliff dwellings. In an effort to preserve the incredible archeological treasure, the National Park Service has excavated and stabilized both mesa top and cliff dwelling sites, chronologically interpreting more than 600 years of mesa occupation. It’s a rich, wonderfully engrossing glimpse into the past.
