The Colorado town of Durango is located close to the Four Corners Monument, which marks the spot where Utah, Mexico, Arizona, and Colorado meet and is perfectly placed for visiting a host of nearby attractions. Outdoor activities are very popular in Durango, and energetic visitors will have no trouble filling their days with activities such as hiking, cycling, rock climbing, whitewater rafting, and even horseback riding. You can also devote some time to visiting historic archaeological sites, such as the Hovenweep National Monument, Chaco Canyon, and Mesa Verde. If you prefer a more cultural visit, you will find a vibrant art scene offering many galleries and live theater productions.

Be sure to enjoy a scenic train trip on the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, which can be combined with a variety of adventure sports.
