Living the Simple Life in Durango
Durango, Colorado is the ideal destination for outdoor enthusiasts. Known for its hiking, whitewater rafting, mountain biking, rock climbing, and several other activities, it is the quintessential vacation spot for active individuals. Jeep tours, perhaps one of the best ways to see this gorgeous area, allow you to go off the beaten path and see everything out in the open air. Because of this, you are able to engage many of your senses in addition to the obvious, sight. You can take Jeep tours at sunset for an added romantic tone, or you can explore during the day for several different intervals of time depending on your personal schedule.
If you are anxious to really be in the thick of it, join a horseback riding excursion for a few days up close and personal with nature. The Continental Divide Horseback Ride lasts eight days and takes you almost 100 miles, following a trail from the Weminuche Wilderness to Silverton, Colorado. All travel in this area is restricted to foot or horseback, so you will enjoy a more simple existence for the duration of the trip. You will see the positive effect that the lack of mass transportation has had on preservation efforts. The land is beautiful and unspoiled, dotted with lakes, streams, and high alpine basins.
Another option for the adventurer in you is the High Country Lake & Fishing Trip. Lasting seven days, you
will stay in comfortable accommodations, with each tent equipped with cots and padding. Some of the wildlife you will see along the way includes elk, black bear, blue grouse, and mule deer. You will also go fly fishing in the Pine River as part of your trip along the continental divide.
As you can see, Durango is the perfect area to visit if the idea of being close to nature and taking in the sights from up close excites you. Check out www.durangotours.net for even more options and ideas to make your trip one that will remain in your memory for a long time to come.
