Colorado Train Vacations
Idyllic scenery and adventurous escapades call to visitors
year-round in beautiful Colorado. Visitors can escape to the rugged
peaks of the Colorado Rockies to experience the untamed beauty for
which the state is so well known. Some of the best things to do in
the state can be found in the Rocky Mountains, from skiing and
hiking to scenic train rides. And the scenic train rides are
certainly abundant. From the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge
Railroad and the Georgetown Loop Railroad to the Broadmoor Manitou
and Pikes Peak Cog Railway, there is a train ride to suit every
traveler. Further, the highly anticipated Rocky Mountaineer has
joined the Colorado railway scene to add a long-distance rail
travel option. Colorado train rides present the landscape's
frequent changes, with some excursions focusing on the mountain
vistas and plunging canyons and others showcasing the high mountain
deserts.
Colorado vacation packages may also take visitors through the
state's vibrant cities, including Denver and Colorado Springs,
where modern amenities collide with the breathtaking views.
Historical destinations steeped in mining history, like Durango and
Georgetown, sit aside beloved destinations like Alamosa and Canon
City on a collection of escorted tours and independent vacation
packages. Discover the state with a rail and drive trip, or join a
series of heritage and scenic railways to get a unique look at
awe-inspiring vistas. Whether you are looking for a Colorado summer
vacation or senior trip ideas, hone your sense of adventure in the
Centennial State.
