Things to do
Hiking
Jud Wiebe
Great hike with views of town. 3 mile loop. Takes around 2 hours total. Begin at top of North Aspen Street and stay left at the bridge. One of our favorite hikes!
Cornet Falls
Easy hike with beautiful views! Only 0.5 miles round trip. Takes less than an hour. Stay straight and do not cross bridge on left. Short but steep hike to the falls.
Bear Creek Falls
Moderate hike, about 5 miles round trip. Starts at the base of S. Pine Street, hike through the woods, up to a the large, spectacular falls.
The River Trail
Easy trail, 1 - 5 miles. The San Miguel River runs along the south/base of town. You can access the trail anywhere in town and either head upstream (to the base of Bridal Veil Falls) or downstream. The trail is fairly flat and open. Its also great for biking or finding small fishing holes along the river.
Bridal Veil Falls Trail
The spectacular Bridal Veil Falls are the tallest free-falling falls in Colorado
Blue Lake
One of our favorites! Moderate - access from the top of Bridal Veil Falls Trail. Approximately 4 hours round trip covering 5.25 miles with an elevation gain of 2,000 feet. This is a spectacular wildflower hike which ends above tree-line at a picturesque lake.
See Forever to Wasatch Connection to Bear Creek
8.5 mile hike, steep up the See Forever trail then flat/downhill with beautiful views. Start at top of gondola (San Sophia Station)
Biking
Rent a mountain bike, electric bike or road bike to explore the trails/town. Highly recommend taking the river trail to Last Dollar road!

The Montrose Regional Airport is the primary airport for Telluride and is a scenic 65 miles away. Several transportation companies provide service from Telluride to Montrose. Rental cars are also available at the Montrose Airport, but we recommend the transportation companies as you will not need a car in Telluride. We typically use Telluride Express or Mountain Limo to get to Telluride.
