About This Trip
Our Telluride Jeep Tours travel remarkably beautiful, historical, and technical off roading trails such as Imogene Pass, Ophir Pass, and Last Dollar Road. These journeys are some of the most beloved and sought-after adventures in the Rocky Mountains, and the views and rich character from the road itself are enough to prove why.
Imogene is the second-highest mountain pass in Colorado, climbing to 13,114 feet. It was initially built in 1880 as a mining route in the current-day Telluride area. The pass comes with exposure on narrow ledges, technical switchbacks just as exposed, and rubbled sections that require high clearance and a skilled driver. This had made Imogene inaccessible to many, as not everyone is an experienced off-roader with a rugged vehicle in tow.
Ophir Pass connects Telluride & Silverton, two historic mining towns. This route includes stunningly pristine views of the San Juan’s, including three of Colorado’s famous ’14er’ peaks – Mt. Wilson, Wilson Peak, and El Diente are all over 14,000ft in elevation!).
Last Dollar Road is another favorite of Telluride locals, as it is known for its heavenly views and unimaginable color palette. The Sneffels Range is visible from this route, including Mt. Sneffels (another of Colorado’s many 14,000ft peaks).
Luckily, anyone can experience the awe inspiring views, abundant wildflowers, and high alpine wildlife on our Telluride Jeep tours. Our guides are highly experienced Jeepers as much as they are incredibly knowledgeable interpreters – they know just which route to take, and when! They’ll take care of the driving while providing more insight into the wild history of this area than you’ll know what to do with.
So buckle up, and get ready for one of the most memorable drives of your life! Telluride Jeep Tours start at $129.

He took the time to educate us about the mining area and scraped rocks to show us the differences in color.Posted on Anne Baccich2025-10-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Did a van tour with Miles that was quite good in spite of the NPS shutdown of Mesa Verde. He clearly knows the history of the area and has great respect for the ruins and the culture of the ancient ones. A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon.Posted on Lisa Janzen2025-10-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Loved the off-roading Jeep ride! We had a great guide and also a great group.Posted on john sanford2025-10-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cat was great. Due to the government shutdown and parts of Mesa Verde being closed she improvised and provided a great learning experience for us. I did not appreciate a call at 9:10 pm the prior night from the scheduler asking if we could change our start times. The main office knew about the closures on Friday and waited until last minute on Sunday to call me about changing and at a late hour.Posted on Robin Simpson2025-10-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cat our guide was wonderful. Even though most of the national parks were closed Cat kept us entertained with her knowledge and stories. Thank you
