When it comes to Halloween, there is no better place to be than Colorado! Let me guess… you didn’t know that Colorado is a great place to spend the holiday, right? Then you have obviously never visited this one Colorado town that was recently named as a best Halloween town in Colorado.
Located in southwest Colorado lies the charming mountain community of Telluride, a historic mining town that is surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery in the state.

Known for its unique downtown area and outdoor recreational opportunities, Telluride was recently named one of Country Living’s 10 Best Small Towns to Visit for Halloween, along with other more obvious choices like Salem, Massachusetts and Sleepy Hollow, New York.
