Alta Lakes
Observatory...
.A Rustic Mountain Retreat
At timberline, Alta Lakes Observatory is nestled at an altitude of 11,300' beneath the 13,800' Silver
Mountain and Palmyra Peaks. Surrounded by National Forest on a remote site next to one of the
three pristine Alta Lakes. Wildflowers, waterfalls, streams, and a variety of wild life abound.
This spectacular setting is 8 miles from Telluride by state highway 145 and 5 miles up an
unimproved mountain road (OK for 2 wheel drive vehicles with good clearance in the summer).
NEW THIS SUMMER Plan a mountain bike ride or hike with family and friends; join us for lunch
or better yet, enjoy the quiet beauty of the lake and mountains as the sun sets, creating a magic
evening, complete with a gourmet dinner.
RESERVATIONS REQUIRED FOR LUNCH OR DINNER!
