Джип-туры по каньону Ла-Плата из Дуранго

Обзор
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).

Рафтинг и джип-туры от легкой до дикой природы
Откройте для себя захватывающий каньон Ла-Плата (в 20 минутах к западу от Дуранго) и его красивую форму U, созданную ледниками, во время одного из наших туров на джипах в Колорадо. Весной по извилистым дорожкам для джипов следуют несколько небольших водопадов и каскадных рек, а также множество диких животных, таких как сурки, олени-мулы, стада лосей, юнко, зимородки, стервятники-индюки, краснохвостые ястребы и белоголовые орланы. В наших экскурсиях на джипах вы увидите многочисленные полевые цветы, высокогорные луга и лавинные овраги. Следуя по реке Ла-Плата (что в переводе с испанского означает «Серебро») в город Ла-Плата, старый шахтерский город, основанный в 1875 году, вы обнаружите остатки старых горнодобывающих предприятий. К ним относятся высокая неповрежденная дымовая труба, оставшаяся от помещений экипажа, каркас старых кабин и хвостовые отвалы из реальных районов добычи полезных ископаемых. Затем вы продолжите путь к вершине перевала Кеннебек на высоте 12 000 футов над уровнем моря (также над линией деревьев).

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

Bella was an awesome guide! The history was engaging. I expected to see a little more but the snow limited the tour. Only complaint is that sitting in the jeep with benches facing each other made it difficult to see some of the sights Bella pointed out

Our guide was Jay. He is very knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor. He was great with the child on the trip. He would stop by streams and show him what types of rocks to look for. He showed him how to break a rock to look for silver or gold inside. We had a fun afternoon.

The tour itself was fabulous. What made it even better was our tour guide, Tosh Black! Not only did he give us the history, he really connected with us as his audience and pointed out things that he knew we would be interested in. Tosh was very accommodating with any of our request. As far as the scenery, one of my husband‘s bucket list items was to climb a mountain, which he will probably never do. But this excursion made him feel like he did, and it was so exhilarating for him, as well as it was for me and our son. When we come back to Durango, we will definitely take this adventure again.
