Telluride 4X4 Off Road Maps:
Almost any outdoor adventure tourism is at your fingertips here, although because of the rugged and steep terrain, many opt for popular four-wheel rides rather than mountain bike spins. One hair-raising route is Imogene Pass to Ouray where you'll pass the old Tomboymine and fort at 13,114 feet in elevation. The San Juan Skyway Scenic &Historic Byway is a popular trek that winds visitors through the rugged and historic region.
And of course, world-class skiing is available up the road or via a free gondola to the town of Mountain Village and Telluride Ski & Golf Resort. The free gondola runs in the summer and fall for easy access up the mountain and to Mountain Village.
As one of the favorite Colorado vacation spots people love to visit, Telluride has been coined the City of Festivals, the title pretty much guarantees that you're likely to stumble on some happening any summer weekend. This mountain community's most famous fests are the Telluride Bluegrass Festival and Telluride Film Festival, but has many more destination events to plan a trip around.
