18 days in Gunnison Itinerary

The City of Gunnison is the county seat and the most populous municipality of Gunnison County, Colorado, United States. Head to Silver Plume General Store and The Bungled Junglefor some retail therapy. Step out of the city life by going to Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park and Zipline. Change things up with these side-trips from Gunnison: Crested Butte (Union Congregational Church, Crested Butte Mountain Resort, &more), Salida (Rocky Mountain Mini Golf, Riverside Park, &more) and Bear Creek Falls (in Telluride). There's much more to do: trek along Curecanti Creek, explore the striking landscape of Gunnison National Forest, tour the pleasant surroundings at Pine Creek, and head outdoors with Hartman Rocks Recreation Area.
