Excursions en jeep dans le canyon de La Plata au départ de Durango

Aperçu
Our Durango Jeep tour travels up La Plata Canyon, a rugged ravine nestled in an alpine paradise.

Here in this glacially sculpted landscape, you’ll find waterfalls cascading into the canyon, hallways of glimmering aspens, countless wildflowers, wildlife scurrying between the meadows, and panoramic views of Colorado's most beautiful Rocky Mountains. Like we said, paradise!

Our fun-loving and experienced guides are Durango locals, who know this canyon's rich history and ecology like nobody else. While other outfitters tend to let the scenery do all the work for them, our guides give you a wealth of insight about what makes this area incredibly special. They're also talented drivers who will get you up this rutted trail without a hitch.

Most people don't want to take their own vehicles up this old mining route, and our open-air Jeeps are customized for a smoother ride— although it will still be bumpy about half way through. It's all a part of the fun!

Mild to Wild Rafting and Jeep Tours
Discover the spectacular La Plata Canyon (20 minutes West of Durango) and its beautiful U formation created by glaciers on one of our Colorado jeep tours. Several small waterfalls and cascading rivers follow the rugged jeep trails in the springtime along with lots of wildlife such as marmots, mule deer, elk herds, juncos, kingfishers, turkey vultures, red-tailed hawks and bald eagles. On our guided jeep tours you will see numerous wildflowers, high-alpine meadows, and avalanche gullies. Following the La Plata River (meaning “Silver” in Spanish) to La Plata City, an old mining town established in 1875, you’ll discover the remnants of old mining claims. These include a tall intact chimney left from the crew quarters, the framework of old cabins, and tailing piles from actual mining areas. Then, you’ll continue to the peak of Kennebec Pass at 12,000 feet above sea level (also above tree-line).

Rafting doux à sauvage et excursions en jeep
Découvrez le spectaculaire canyon de La Plata (à 20 minutes à l'ouest de Durango) et sa magnifique formation en U créée par les glaciers lors de l'une de nos excursions en jeep dans le Colorado. Plusieurs petites chutes d'eau et rivières en cascade suivent les sentiers de jeep accidentés au printemps, ainsi que de nombreux animaux sauvages tels que des marmottes, des cerfs mulets, des troupeaux de wapitis, des juncos, des martins-pêcheurs, des vautours à tête rouge, des faucons à queue rousse et des pygargues à tête blanche. Lors de nos visites guidées en jeep, vous verrez de nombreuses fleurs sauvages, des prairies de haute montagne et des couloirs d'avalanche. En suivant la rivière La Plata (qui signifie "Argent" en espagnol) jusqu'à La Plata City, une ancienne ville minière fondée en 1875, vous découvrirez les vestiges d'anciennes concessions minières. Ceux-ci comprennent une grande cheminée intacte laissée par les quartiers de l'équipage, la charpente d'anciennes cabines et des tas de résidus provenant de zones minières réelles. Ensuite, vous continuerez jusqu'au sommet du col Kennebec à 12 000 pieds au-dessus du niveau de la mer (également au-dessus de la limite des arbres).

Mild to Wild Rafting and Jeep Tours
Meet us at our Durango Office in the morning or afternoon for a 4-hour excursion up the ruggedly beautiful wilderness of La Plata Canyon, just 20 minutes from town. The trail starts off smooth and slowly transitions into a rubbled road about half up the canyon. Get ready to rock around and get to know the person next to you! As we make our way up the mountain, we'll stop to check out some waterfalls, meadows, and old remnants from Colorado's wild mining era. On the way up, keep your eyes peeled for deer, marmot, fox, birds of prey— and if you’re lucky, a moose or bear! Once we've reached the top of the canyon, we'll take some time to enjoy a spectacular view of the San Juan Mountains, Colorado's most beloved Rockies! From late June to early August, this is the perfect off-roading trail for wildflowers. In late September to early October, the large aspen groves make for amazing fall colors

We took the half-day Jeep tour with Jay as our guide on our first full day in Durango. Jay was super personable and made the whole experience a pleasure. Our group included our family of four (two children, ages 7 and 10) and an older couple we'd never met. Jay included everyone in conversation, and we all became friends. By the end of the tour, we just about invited him to our AirBnB for dinner! The scenery was beautiful throughout, and we enjoyed learning about the different mountain ranges and mining communities that had populated the land over the years. One caution: they told us it would be chilly, and they were RIGHT! We should have worn another layer of clothing. Fortunately, they had extra flannels for each of us and blankets for use in the Jeep. We enjoyed the tour and highly recommend Jay.

Comparing what the videos show on the website and what we received were very different couldn’t hear him talking as he was explaining things just too loud he needed a mic system overall disappointing would not recommend

Our trip started early in the morning in a modified truck that could seat up to 12 passengers. Three rows with four butts per row. We were 9 so seated 3x3 and that was fairly comfortable. We were taken by Jerry, our guide & driver, up a forestry road almost to Kennebec Pass at the top. The trip starts on black-top and then transitions fairly quickly to a dirt road. By the time you're reached the top, you've transitioned to a road that requires a high-clearance vehicle due to the rocks & bumps. We returned by the same path which is kinda a bummer but I'm sure they don't have all day to do giant loops. Jerry stopped at various places along the way on both the way up and back and would tell us about the area and its history. He was the right balance of fun & informative. No complaints there. If you have back or spine problems, I'd recommend against this trip - it's fairly jouncy. That's part of the fun, of course, if you're back is fine and why, in part, you buy into a trip like this. All in all, a quite fun trip. Note: we did this activity as part of the jeep & raft combo package and returned in time to raft in the afternoon. I'll review that separately but I will suggest that if you do both activities that the transition time is minimal. Pack some snacks or a quick lunch and plan to change into rafting clothing at the facility (there's changing rooms for this).

Thanks for your description of our Rivers and Trails trip (1/2 day raft, and 1/2 day jeep tour). The jeep tour is quite bumpy on these un-maintained, old mining roads so it is not recommended for those with back problems. Some of our other tours, do offer more of a loop, but this tour does not as you mentioned. There is generally 1-1.5 hours between the two trips. We do have a picnic area for those that bring their own lunch, or some quick restaurants close by to pick up a bite. Thanks so much for sharing your experience.
