About Telluride

This is the town to run to if you are into skiing when you break from your mid-morning brain storming activities in your coworking venue with all of the white fluffy stuff hanging around your doorstep in the winter. Telluride is a former Victorian mining town in the Rocky Mountains cuddled by peaks covered in forest. If you like to put your history buff cap on for awhile, its historic district has some landmarks worth taking a peek at, plus there is the Telluride Historical Museum to meander around. From being a former silver mining camp, today it is a tourist city squatting on the San Miguel River in the western San Juan Mountains that has coworking venues appearing in its streets.

Somewhat isolated, the most common way to get to the town is through either the Imogene Pass or the Black Bear Pass. Its regional airport is considered to be a bit of a challenge as it sits at 9,070 feet and was once the highest elevated commercial airport in the United States. If you want to get to the city by plane, it is healthier to land at the Montrose (MTJ) airport that sits about 110km down the road. There is a free gondola connecting the town with Mountain Village that is at the base of the ski area. Much of the city is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and it is also one of Colorado's 20 National Historic Landmarks. With only about 2,325 souls in the town, you will definitely get a chance to meet most of the locals.

Known for its famous music and film festivals plus being featured in the hit song by Glenn Frey from Miami Vice, "Smugglers Blues", Telluride grew a bad-boy town image that attracted celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey, Tom Cruise and Oliver Stone. By the mid 1990s the town had established itself as a premier resort town. Definitely not a tech hub, it is however home to some out-of-the-box thinkers who like to hang around with likeminded souls in coworking venues where the occasional globetrotting nomad pops in to get some work done before hitting the slopes.
