Getting around
Pedestrian Friendly Downtown Durango
Downtown Durango is very pedestrian and bike friendly. There is also street metered parking for cars. A trolley service runs along Main Ave. Uber, lift and taxis are also available. A car is needed for activities outside of town. Cellular service can be spotty in some remote areas so using ride share apps might be a risk.
