2026 Fall Foliage Update
Fall is here! Every year, we anxiously await the turning of the leaves in Telluride. Aspens adorn the entire valley, and fall in Telluride can be quite stunning. Be sure to hop on the gondola and enjoy a free view from above!
Please note: Weather greatly impacts the colors changing and peak fall varies every single year. Late September/early October is always a safe bet for visiting.
