Tucked in the San Juan Mountains just 35 miles north of the New Mexico border, Pagosa Springs, Colorado, offers a wealth of outdoor adventure.

Located at 7,126 feet above sea level, this southwest Colorado town has a reputation for mild winters and warm summer days, making it a popular destination year-round.  The town reopened to visitors in early June after COVID-19 restrictions were lifted. (Be sure to check local guidelines before you go.)
