Nestled high in the heart of the San Juan Mountains in a mountain valley, the Town of Silverton combines supreme natural beauty and magnificent Victorian charm. Downtown Silverton is the infamous Blair Street Bordello District full of singular gift shops and galleries stuffed with the works of many local artists. Nearby is the Kendall Mountain Ski Area and Purgatory Ski Resort is south of town on the way to Durango. |
The main attractions in Silverton are the rustic dirt streets and Victorian character, colorful mining history, and its remote location in the heart of the San Juan mountains -- with just enough services to make life comfortable. Unlike most other mining camps, Silverton was never devastated by a major fire, and much of the Victorian architecture seen today is original. Silverton can be reached via the San Juan Skyway most of the year (except when the passes are buried in fresh fallen snow). But for the most part, town is an excellent jumping off point for adventures in the heart of the San Juan Mountains. The ghost towns of Eureka, Animas Forks and Howardsville are close by. |
