TWO TOWNS, ONE LOVE

Welcome to Telluride and Mountain Village. Two towns in one beautiful package, each has its own distinct vibe, but together share a love of community and the stunning natural environment. This winter, take time to explore both of these charming places, using the unforgettable Gondola to whisk you between them.

Telluride

A National Historic Landmark District, Telluride is steeped in history. The town’s roots run right back to the second half of the 19th century when it was a center of the mining industry and the place where Butch Cassidy robbed his first bank. Look around town and you will see a wealth of historical homes and buildings — structures that have been carefully preserved over time and which now house wonderful restaurants, lively bars and music venues, funky boutiques and fine-art galleries.

Mountain Village

At 9,545 feet and almost completely enveloped by the Telluride Ski Resort, this hamlet offers a more modern, luxe feel in a European-style alpine setting. Incorporated in 1995, Mountain Village boasts exquisite accommodations, state-of-the-art spas, stylish shops and sophisticated dining options, all surrounded by towering mountains that form the highest concentration of 13,000- and 14,000-foot peaks in the United States.

The Gondola

Linking these two communities is the Gondola. The only public transportation system of its kind in North America, the free, environmentally friendly “G” connects Telluride and Mountain Village via a 13-minute ride. It’s also wheelchair, bike, stroller and pet friendly. Some aficionados try to snag the red gondola cabin, created in 2016 to celebrate the G’s 20th anniversary, or the white cabin, which marks its 25th. Whichever cabin you’re in, the Gondola is one journey you will never forget.
