Durango Gay Guide and Photo Gallery

By , About.com Guide

One of the larger community's in the West's dramatic Four Corners region, rugged and outdoorsy Durango is the quintessentially laid-back and friendly Colorado mountain town. The small city of about 15,000 lies beneath the magnificent San Juan Mountains, in the valley of the roaring Animas River. Far from any big cities, Durango is a good base for exploring nearby Mesa Verde national park, the red rocks of Moab and Monument Valley, and the ski towns of Telluride, Taos, and Pagosa Springs. Here's a photographic guide to scenic Durango, including many of its gay-friendly restaurants, cafes, bars, and hotels.
