COTTONWOOD COVE TOUR
🍂 Ride into Colorado's fall beauty on rails.
Escape the ordinary this fall with our exclusive Cottonwood Cove Pop-Up Tour — an 11-mile round-trip railbike ride along the legendary Rio Grande. Surrounded by golden aspens, rugged cliffs, and fresh mountain air, you’ll pedal through forested trails, past riverside campgrounds, and into the heart of southern Colorado’s hidden gems.
The ride offers gentle hills and varied terrain — enough to feel accomplished, but still easy-going. Along the way, you’ll catch views of the La Garita Caldera’s southeast rim and the sheer rock faces lining Highway 149.
At the turnaround, you'll enjoy a restful break at Cottonwood Cove. Explore the local gift shop, cool off with some ice cream, and enjoy a short history talk before the return ride.
Whether you're planning a couples' outing, an easygoing group adventure, or just want something totally different to do this fall — this scenic ride delivers.
