The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad has transported passengers through the scenic landscape and mountainous wilderness of the San Juan National Forest for 140 years. As the steel wheels chug along, you’ll see the Animas River, San Juan Mountains, and Cascade Canyon, which all lie between the cities of Durango and Silverton. 

It’s one of the most famous historic railroads in the United States and a National Historic Landmark. Plan your ride carefully, as the train only runs during the summer and fall months.
