Ouray has been a special destination of world travelers for more than 100 years. This small intimate community is nestled in some of the most rugged and towering peaks of the Rockies. Set at the narrow head of a valley at 7,792 feet and surrounded on three sides with 13,000 foot snowcapped peaks - Ouray is home to hundres of miles of historic Jeep roads, sulfur-free hot springs with stunning views and the world-famous Ouray Ice Park.

Remarkably, two-thirds of Ouray's original Victorian structures, are still occupied, and have been lovingly restored in order to preserve their turn-of-the-century charm.

Reward yourself - escape to the dramatic and breathtaking beauty of Ouray. Take a step back in time and experience our legends and unique landscape. Enjoy the Victorian architecture, friendly mountain people, and a peaceful atmosphere that runs on its own time. Relax in the therapeutic mineral Ouray Hot Springs Pool and see the awe-inspiring Box Cañon Falls, clear mountain streams and alpine wildflowers. Transform yourself in this year-round recreational playground.
