Sightseeing
One of Durango's largest attractions...you can ride the train from Durango to Silverton. Not into riding? The train museum at the depot is pretty cool too, and free! Everyone will love this museum.

Some people would argue this is the best breakfast in town, but it is a bit of a greasy spoon. A good hangover cure, in fact that is an item on the menu!
