The old silver mine is a great short detour along the Colorado Trail. There are two buildings still standing and also a pretty slanted outhouse. A marmot has moved into the main building and there is a nice flat spot to pitch a tent. Enjoy the view of the mountains and Durango!

The view is mind-blowing! Stopp and enjoy it. It can't get any better than this.

There is a little parking area for the Hermosa Creek Trail system, which is quite extensive. And if you want to stay overnigt: The is a beautiful campground next to the trailhead, the Lower Hermosa Campground. It does not get much more convenient than this!

Hermosa Creek Trailhead and Jones Creek Trailhead are located just next to each other, with two separate trails that take you into or along the edge of Hermosa Creek Wilderness. At Jones Creek Trailhead, you will find a primitive campground and pit toilets.

The network of trails on Raider Ridge is rocky, dusty, and usually fairly steep. Hikers, trail runners, and mountain bikers frequent the ridge and this lookout, which peers over the city, Animas Mountain, and the Perins Peak Wildlife Area.

If you are already in the area, you should take some time for a stroll through downtown Durango – a Nationally Registered Historic District – with its beautiful historic buildings, nice restaurants and cool breweries. Durango is also the southern terminus of the famous steam train, that you can ride on between here and Silverton. If you plan to hike the long-distance Colorado Trail, Durango is practically the southwestern end with the terminus just five miles from here.

Hogsback is an easily recognizable peak from town. There is a distinctive ridge traveling up to the summit, and the trail itself is as steep as they come. It's easy to get "spooked" when it's time to head downhill because of how steep the slopes are off the sides of the trail. The lookout from the top is worth the efforts to get up and down, though.
