About This Trip
A Silverton Jeep Tour is the ultimate way to experience the jaw dropping beauty of Southwest Colorado’s most rugged Rocky Mountains and rich mining history. Our routes are filled with peaceful meadows, panoramic views, waterfalls, and 150-year-old mining sites from when the area was first developed.
In late spring, the wildflowers completely paint the mountain slopes. In early fall, the area showcases some of the most impressive fall colors in the country. No matter what time you’re here though (aside from when the trails are snowed over), a Silverton Jeep Tour will take your Colorado experience to the next level.

How To Dress And What To Bring On A Colorado Jeep Tour
Important Considerations
We take different routes around Silverton depending on what people would like to see most. Some trails have more mining history while others are more about the views, so let your guide know what you’re most interested in if you have a preference!
Colorado Car Seat Law states children up to 8 years old must be in an appropriate car seat. Please bring your own.
In fall and spring the temperatures / weather can fluctuate quite a bit. So bring layers with you just in case! The guides usually have blankets as well.
The San Juan Mountains are prone to afternoon rain showers! Bring some rain gear.
All routes/itineraries are subject to change depending on road conditions.
