Ridgway, Colorado is known as one of the prettiest locations in all of Colorado. Ringed by the imposing peaks of the San Juan mountains, it’s a happening little town that evokes the Old West. Located south of Montrose, Colorado in the southwest part of the state, Ridgway sits at the gateway to Telluride and Ouray, two towns famous for their beautiful settings. The town itself sits at 7,000 feet in elevation, which makes for cool summers and milder winters, while the San Juans rise to over 14,000 feet just a few miles away. The views are breathtaking. The scene is so striking that it was used for the filming of the original True Grit movie starring John Wayne and Glen Campbell, as well as several other Westerns. Fashion mogul Ralph Lauren has a stunning 22,000-acre ranch that is only a couple of miles from this horse property, and the famous views on Dallas Divide are only a few short miles to the south. Telluride is just 45 minutes away.
