Telluride's naturally beautiful setting
sets the tone for wonderul vibrations felt
throughout the trendy hamlet of 2900+ people.
Summertime in Telluride is a season devoted
to both quiet solitude and fun-filled festivals.
With a variety of events happening every
weekend,
Telluride proudly boasts of being the Festival
Capital of the West while a short hike from
town, the gondola stations or Mountain Village
takes you deep into the majestic natural
beauty the San Juan Mountains are famous
for.
Telluride's festivals sell out quickly as
does the lodging for the bigger events. The
Telluride Official Guide suggests early purchase
of tickets and lodging to insure a happy
festival
