The Railcamp is available for summer weekly rentals and is pulled by the train to the remote Cascade Canyon area of the San Juan Mountain Forest and used as a base camp for hiking, exploring and more. Advance reservations are required. This does not apply to upgraded reservations. Fees will be collected at time of booking change and prior to issuance of new tickets. We encourage passengers to avoid wearing light clothing and we suggest sunglasses be used to protect eyes.
Passengers are responsible for their own protection.
The weather in the mountains can change rapidly especially considering the higher elevation of Silverton. Be sure to bring a sweater or a jacket with you. The Durango area boasts nearly 300 days of sunshine, however afternoon mountain showers are prevalent during the summer months.
