The "MILLION DOLLAR HIGHWAY” consistently voted of of the MOST SCENIC DRIVES IN THE UNITED STATES. Located in Southwestern Colorado, US Route 550 also known as the San Juan Skyway offers some stunning views of the Rocky Mountains! Besides being voted one of the top scenic roads it is also known as one of the MOST DANGEROUS ROADS IN THE WORLD! The 25 mile stretch from Ouray to Silverton runs through three mountain passes the Cole Bank, Molas and Red Mountain Pass and includes some stretches of sheer drop-offs with no guardrails to save you from plummeting to a sure death. There are many turn outs along the way that allow you to take your time and allow the faster traffic to pass. In Ouray make sure to stop at the Box Canyon and Cascade Falls. Further south near Silverton, forest road 585 will lead you to a short hike and another awesome waterfall, "South Mineral Creek Falls" The Million Dollar Highway is well worth the trip if you are looking for adventure in Colorado! Ouray is about 90 miles south of Interstate 70 at Grand Junction.
