Salida is a great stop along the Great Divide Trail and a good base for shorter bike excursions. The beautiful mountain town is located in the heart of the Rockies in central Colorado. Downtown Salida is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Due to the cool summers and relatively mild winters, the area around Salida is nicknamed the "banana belt" of Colorado. The attractive city has a charming downtown with well-restored historical buildings, as well as many art galleries. Old town is located on the edge of the Arkansas, which makes it particularly pleasant, with car-free access to lush riverside parks.

The Salida Museum preserves, safeguards and displays significant artifacts of Salida and Central Colorado. Exhibits include pretty much everything about Salida history, beginning around 1880, when Salida was founded and became a major railroad center. The museum is staffed by volunteers who are passionate about preserving the past. Summer hours are generally noon to 4 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday, and winter hours are noon to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. At other times a volunteer may be available on “off days” by calling 719- 539 -3139. to accommodate folks who are interested in learning about Salida history. https://salidamuseum.org

The Arkansas River Trail is a 5.6 mile loop on both sides of the Arkansas River. The trail is paved and mostly flat, so it is not a challenging trail. There are great views of the river for most of the trail.

There is a spectacular view of Spiney Ridge as you descend down Shelf Road. It is a popular place for climbing and really takes your breath away when it comes into view.

Shelf Road is an old stage coach route that connects Canon City with Cripple Creek. It is incredibly scenic with breathtaking views at almost every corner. It's a long climb up to Cripple Creek with an elevation gain of 3000 ft, but the way back down is absolutely magic. It can be technical gravel in places.
