Durango Train to Cascade
The Durango Railroad runs into Cascade Canyon from the beginning of November to the end of April. The train ride to is approximately 2 hours each way and offers an opportunity to play in the snow in Cascade for about 45 minutes.
Durango Railroad Winter Excursion
Durango Railroad offers a winter excursion/package that you can purchase in conjunction with a one way trip to Cascade. Take the Train to Cascade and get dropped off at Rockwood Station for a 2 hour snowmobile ride along the mountainside.
We had so much fun on this excursion it was well worth the extra $99.00 per person.
