    Hiking

    Eureka is a former mining settlement nestled in the San Juan Mountains. Up until 1939 the miners were working in the nearby Sunnyside Mill which is still visible today. The only remaining structure in Eureka is the jail, which has been restored. The town is located close to the start of the iconic Alpine Loop.
