A high and rugged mountain range
This spectacular loop through the rugged San Juan Mountains of Southwest Colorado follows 236 miles of state-maintained highways on a journey from towering peaks (14 summits surpass 14,000 ft.) to picturesque valley cattle ranches. This scenic byway was the first in Colorado to receive official national and state designation and has just been nationally honored as an "All-American Road, one of only six in the U.S.A.
An Outdoor Recreation Paradise
The San Juan National Forest lies on the west side of the continental divide and stretches down towards the ancient Indian country in the South West of Colorado where the mountains meet the mesas and canyons of the Colorado Plateau.
With multiple peaks over 10,000 feet the dramatic San Juan Mountains are a haven for outdoor fans of every kind. Active recreation opportunities abound amongst spectacular scenery in any season. As well as abundant beauty and recreational opportunity the San Juan's are more peaceful and unspoilt than the front range mountains offering, for many, a preferred wilderness destination.
The main attractors are hiking through lush valleys and onto barren peaks, spectacular driving along unparalleled routes and fantastic winter skiing away from the mega-resorts of Aspen and the I-70 corridor. The San Juan's are one of THE great outdoor destinations.
