Step back in time in the charming mountain town of Minturn, one of Colorado's most authentic historic communities. Originally founded as a railroad and mining town in the late 1800s, Minturn is known for its colorful history, locally owned shops, welcoming atmosphere, and stunning mountain setting along the Eagle River. Today, it offers visitors a unique glimpse into Colorado's rich mining heritage while serving as a gateway to the Vail Valley.

Red Cliff
Take in the dramatic views of Gilman, one of Colorado's most famous abandoned mining towns, perched high on the cliffs above the Eagle River. Once home to thousands of miners, Gilman was a booming producer of zinc, lead, and silver before becoming a ghost town in the 1980s. Continue to nearby Red Cliff, a charming Victorian-era mountain town founded in 1879, where historic buildings, rich mining history, and stunning alpine scenery bring Colorado's past to life.
