Review:

San Juan Backcountry offers visitors to the historic Old West mining town multiple ways to experience San Juan and the surrounding San Juan Mountains. Expert local guides can show visitors around the spectacular backcountry via 4x4 Suburban or ATV. Those arriving by train from Durango can be picked up at the train station, then it’s on to the Mining Museum, Mayflower Mill, and Old Hundred Mine, where they’ll learn about the rich area history from their guide. Visitors can opt for ATV, jeep, or dirt bike rentals and do their own exploring. San Juan Backcountry can also drop visitors off at local fishing holes or trailheads. During winter, guests can take guided snowmobile tours or rent snowmobiles.
