Visiting Durango for many families includes experiencing a major regional 'must-do' and easily one of those is riding the narrow gauge train to Silverton.
The historic train is a gem and we recommend riding from Durango to Silverton. Why? Because the engine is working to climb up the river valley the entire way to Silverton and you can hear the steam engine working hard.
Consider our home as your vacation base if you're heading out this way. Durango Valley View sleeps 4 comfortably (6 with a sofa sleeper) and the home is conveniently located 10 minutes from Durango, 1 minute from the Durango Hot Springs () and 20 minutes to Purgatory Resort ().
