Description

Ready for a break from the ski slopes but still want to enjoy the wintery landscapes of Telluride? This 2-hour Alta Ghost Town Snowmobile Tour will take you into a world of breathtaking natural beauty, while also offering a unique opportunity to delve into the rich mining history of Southwest Colorado.

As you travel toward Alta Ghost Town, you’ll trace the same paths used by miners in the late 19th century. Once a bustling mining community, Alta was a hub of activity during Colorado’s gold and silver rush. Now a quiet relic of the past, the ghost town stands as a reminder of the rich history that shaped the region. Your guide will share intriguing stories about Alta’s mining heyday, offering insight into the lives of the people who called this remote outpost home.

The groomed trail system offers thrilling snowmobile action yet is suitable for beginners and intermediate riders. Be enthralled by the awe-inspiring sight of the majestic 14,000-foot Wilson Peaks and the stunning Ophir Needles. 

Our tours, designed to cater to all, are perfect for families, history enthusiasts, and groups seeking a blend of excitement and education. Whether you're a novice or have some snowmobiling experience, our trails offer the ideal balance of challenge and enjoyment. Choose your adventure style: solo riders can savor the thrill of navigating their own snowmobile, or double riders can share the experience with a partner or child ages 6 +.

Your safety and comfort are our top priorities. Our fleet of snowmobiles features user-friendly automatic transmissions, suitable for all skill levels. Before setting off, we'll ensure you're familiar with your machine to guarantee a safe and enjoyable ride.
