Location Platoro Cabin 1
Address:
112 Conejos Avenue
Platoro, CO, 81120
United States
From Antonito, CO, follow Highway 17 west to its junction with FSR 250. Follow FSR 250 northwest up the Conejos Canyon about 22 miles to Platoro. Turn left on FSR 250.6A and follow it 0.2 mile to the cabin.
From the town of South Fork, follow Highway 160 to the southwest for about 7.5 miles.
Turn left onto Park Creek Road, which is also Forest Service Road 380. Continue for approximately 27 miles, paralleling Park Creek for much of the way.
Turn right (south), crossing the Alamosa River, and follow National Forest Road 250 over
Stunner pass and into the town of Platoro. This stretch of the trip is about 6 miles long. The
cabins are located on the southeast part of town. It is best to cross the Conejos River using
the lower bridge; this is National Forest Road 250.6A. Continue on this road for about .2
miles to the cabins. The cabins are easily identified by their yellow and brown siding and
trim, as well as by the Forest Service signs.
Note: Be careful not to leave Forest Service Road 380 and continue towards Summitville.
Forest Service Road 380 makes a bit of a hairpin turn near the old mining settlement of
Summitville. This occurs about 19 miles from the US Highway 160 and Park Creek Road
intersection.
