Georgetown Colorado Travel Information
Georgetown is a small, scenic community nestled in a mountain valley
in the Rockies west of Denver. Though only a mile from the interstate,
Georgetown feels more isolated, and more at peace with the surrounding
environment. The town is both less crowded and more genuine than the
more popular resort communities to the west. There is plenty to see
and do in Georgetown. The Georgetown Loop Railroad, a reconstruction
of an innovative historical train line that rises a twisting 600 feet
in just a few miles, offers daily rides during summer months. The
surrounding mountains are filled with trails and old mining roads, and
inhabited by herds of elk and bighorn sheep. In addition, a variety of
restaurants around town serve both local and international
food. Georgetown is located in north central Colorado, about 45
miles west of Denver.
