Nestled between the glamour of Vail and Beaver Creek, Minturn is a small town with big character. In addition to historic architecture and charming homes, the oldest town in the Vail Valley boasts great restaurants, unique galleries and several western antique stores.

Traditionally a mining and railroad town, Minturn preserves its "Old West" feeling, even with the addition of the new Minturn Town Center. One of the most popular events in the community is the Minturn Farmer's Market, which runs weekly during the summer.

Minturn is surrounded on three sides by the Holy Cross Wilderness, a national forest, and the mighty Eagle River runs all the way through town. Whatever the season, activities abound. Hiking, biking, snowshoeing and cross country skiing are only some of the year round recreation opportunities offered by the White River National Forest. Of course the primary winter activity is the world class skiing at Vail and Beaver Creek resorts.
