Beyond the cliffs is nothing but forest service land for hundreds of miles. On the property there is a covered private tennis court for your personal use!
This property, even though it is only 2 miles from Durango, is in a beautiful river valley and is filled with tall Ponderosa Pines, enormous oaks and lots of seclusion. Great views of the La Plata Mountains from this property. At 6500 feet in elevation you have the perfect combination of warm winter days and cool summer nights for your vacation in Durango. You are only a 25 minute drive to the Durango Mountain Ski Resort.

Talk about the perfect location! Your backyard is the acclaimed Red Hermosa Cliffs where numerous Red Tail Hawk nests abound with National Forest beyond that. Your front yard is pasture land overlooking the Animas River where herds of elk can be seen on numerous days.

A few steps from your front door a large water canal meanders through this heavily wooded property. On the quiet county road in the distance, you will see many bicycle riders, runners, and walkers. This is one of the best places to go for a long run, walk or a bike ride in Durango. Don't forget to visit the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad.
