Hotels in Durango, Mexico

Durango sits in southwest Colorado's San Juan Mountains, famous for the historic Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad that chugs through 19th-century mining canyons. Summers bring warm 80°F (27°C) days perfect for whitewater rafting on the Animas River or hiking to the 14,000-foot peaks, while winters drop to 20°F (-7°C) and draw skiers to Purgatory Resort's 105 trails just 25 miles north. The Animas River flows right through town, so you can grab a kayak or tube in July, then come back in February for snowshoeing on the same riverbanks.
