Durango Map
Looking for a map of Durango, Colorado? This is the official, interactive Durango map, curated by Visit Durango — trails, the river, the train, restaurants, and places to stay across La Plata County, all pinned in one place. Downtown, the historic Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad leaves from Main Avenue, a few blocks from Victorian-era hotels like the Strater. The Animas River Trail runs a paved line through the heart of town, the Horse Gulch trail system climbs straight out of downtown for mountain bikers, and US-550 north is one of the great mountain drives in America, past Purgatory Resort toward Silverton. Explore the map right here in your browser, save the spots you want to hit, then download it in the free Wander app to use offline in the mountains.
