Chimney Rock, Colorado - June26, 2007

Chimney Rock in South West Colorado is a very interesting place to visit - a lot of history and an awesome view. BUT you can only take a guided tour to the top and hence you have to put up with a slow pace. It'll take you 2 1/2 to 3 hours to get it down but since there is no other choice its worth it.

Chimney Rock is 17 miles west of Pagosa Springs (42 miles east of Durango) on Hwy 151.


Guided tours start st 9:30 am, 10:30 am, Noon, 1pm and 2pm. Cost is $8 for adults and $2 for kids. No pets are allowed and kids are going to have a hard time staying with the slow pace tour and stay on the trail but once they get to the top they'll forget all about the boring stuff.
