Jeep The USA

Best Jeep trails in the Western U.S.

Silverton - Ouray Jeep Trails

Silverton and Ouray, Colorado have a variety of Jeep and ATV trails from easy graded roads up to one fairly difficult 4WD trail.  There is an interactive map with ALL TRAILS in the region on one map so you can put them in perspective.

​All trails are detailed on this website with maps, descriptions and photos plus GPS & gpx tracks.
​The Silverton Region also includes the towns of Creede, Lake City, and Telluride.​

Silverton is the place to stay if you want to be in the center of the fantastic alpine Jeeping of the San Juan Mountains.

This area is special!

​Over 40 relatively easy off-road trails.  Except for Poughkeepsie Gulch, all trails get some degree of maintenance on at least an occasional basis.  Many trails across the West get no maintenance and are simply allowed to deteriorate. 

​​Flower Jeep in Montrose is one of the Jeep dealers reachable from Silverton and Ouray.  Read about an attempted scam on us by Flower.

We always travel from Centennial RV Park in Montrose to Jeep in this area, so want to give them a big shout-out.

GPX Files - This section allows you to download all trails and waypoints in a few steps, rather than individually from trail web pages.
  • You will know all the roads around you out in the field, and you will know what all your travel options are.
  • You can have all trails on your device and only turn on the one you want to run.
  • This is the only place you can download Access Roads and Minor Trails.

​​If you do not want all trails on your device, we strongly suggest you at least download all Access Roads so you can get around the Region.  Then download tracks for individual Major Trails from the bottom of the individual Major Trail webpage.
