DOLORES CANYON PRESERVE Rare opportunity to own 10.35 acres bordering thousands of acres of National Forest just outside Telluride in one of Southwest Colorado's most scenic river canyons. Towering red rock cliffs, mature ponderosa pines, and abundant wildlife create an unforgettable setting that feels worlds away while remaining directly accessible from Highway 145. The property offers a beautiful mix of level terrain along the highway and gently rising forest that transitions into dramatic canyon walls, creating exceptional privacy and incredible natural beauty. Bordering National Forest provides direct access to endless hiking, hunting, mountain biking, and outdoor recreation right from your property. Located across from the Dolores River and only minutes from Telluride, Rico, Dolores, and world class skiing, this is an exceptional opportunity to build a mountain retreat, recreational getaway, or legacy property. The neighboring 7 acre parcel is also available, creating the opportunity to own over 17 acres with nearly 1,300 feet of combined highway frontage. Properties offering National Forest boundaries, dramatic canyon scenery, year round access, and this level of privacy are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
