visit teller county
Established in 1899, historic Teller County, Colorado offers you a rich history of gold mining, gold camps, boarding houses, saloons, and even brothels. The gold mined in Teller County has been “valued greater than all other gold mining operations ever conducted in the United States combined.”
Today, apart from still active gold mining operations, you’ll find easy access to some of Colorado’s favorite activities such as hiking, mountain biking, tent and RV camping, gold medal trout fishing, wildlife viewing, miles and miles of ATV trails, exciting attractions, historic landmarks & venues, national monuments, and so much more right at the base of America’s Mountain, Pikes Peak.
Teller County is surrounded by the one-million-acre Pike National Forest and is only a 20-mile drive from Colorado Springs, making it an appealing base camp for all Colorado visitors and a lovely spot to call home for our local inhabitants!
