- 48 Hours in Telluride, Colorado - Top 8 Things to Do in the Summer Travel Vlog (2021) Travel Guide takes you on the free Gondola Ride to Mountain Village, Shopping in Downtown Telluride, Town Park, Historic District / Telluride Historical Museum, Restaurants - Gnarly Taco & Brown Dog Pizza, Hike to Bridal Veil Falls, Biking through downtown Telluride, and ends with a hike to Lower Blue Lake.
We take our camper van (Winnebago Revel Mercedes Sprinter) as we travel from downtown Telluride to the Blue Lakes Trail Head (Mount Sneffels). Make sure to add Telluride on your travel bucket list as there is something to do for everyone. As a travel couple we really enjoyed Telluride and recommend it to other couples, friends, and family!
There are a few options for van life and camping in Telluride. First we tried Mill Road Free Camping spots but it was full at the time so we paid $14 and stayed at Mary E campsite. You can also camp at Town Park Campsites but they fill up fast so make sure to plan ahead. On our 2nd night we camped at the Blue Lakes Trailhead (Mount Sneffels) which had free campsites!

I commend y’all on the very professional editing and story telling. It’s almost like a show on cable TV in hotels.
Thank you so much JP! Means a lot. ❤️
Grandma and I just finished watching on the big screen at the cottage. Simply beautiful. You kids do a great job presenting each video.
❤️ thanks! I can’t believe you guys commented before Emmett :) I will have to tell him Grandma and Grandpa beat him!
That lake tho!! What a fun town, love the mountains. Looks like a blast!
I was lucky enough to live in Telluride back in the early 80's...just when they were starting to build Mountain Village. It was the same as it is now (basically) I still go back every year to ski or mountain bike. My friends still live there and it's the best way to stay and play! Also, the town is close to the Colorado Trail, which is AMAZING! You guys captured the charm of T-Ride!
So awesome you lived there and so great to hear it hasn’t changed much. This is one of our top spots that we both agreed we’d like to live in one day!
My goodness, what an absolute beautiful town!!!
Stunning! We want to go back!
Thank you for this video! was exactly what I was looking for! I'm heading there in april for about 4 days, and then once again in fall for just a couple days! thanks again!
So cool meeting you guys up at Blue Lake. Couldn't believe Faris decided to jump in a second time! 😂
Hahaha Lisa forced me to 😂 , but It was worth it for the vid. It was great meeting you and so glad that you commented on here!
Thank you so much guys!!
We are headed there this Sunday and your vid was extremely informative!!! Blessings to you both! Happy and safe travels!!
So awesome!! Hope you have the best trip such a great spot
Visited this town last week. Beautiful town. I can't believe they received a foot of snow in May.
I’m so glad you guys enjoyed my home town.
One of our favorite places in the world!
You guys are super underrated! I would've guess you had at least 100k subs
Thanks Frankie, really appreciate that ☺️
SO glad I came across your video! Thank you, we cant wait to visit!!
You will love it! It was the highlight of our Colorado adventures!
Yep, I’m definitely going there this summer
Such an awesome spot!
Wow, beautiful !! Refreshing!!
Thank you good sir
Telluride is fun place to visit in the summer, and you really highlight this in your video. Also, perfect recommendations of the top things to do! We recently hiked the Blue Lakes Trail, and it's in our top 10 all time favorite hikes. So beautiful! We didn't have a chance to see Bridal Veil Falls during our time in the area. Nice job capturing the it! Helpful video when planning a trip to Telluride! Well done! 👍
Thanks so much! Telluride is awesome and blue lake definitely is top 10. Glad you liked the video. We plan on doing more like it in the future and the feedback is much appreciated
This was so informative! We can’t wait for our trip to Telluride😍
Thanks ❤️ you guys will love it. Such a great area and the people are all super cool as well!
Amazing views!, Giving you props Faris for jumping in blue lake, sooo cold. Great video, definitely on our bucket list!!
Ice cold blood in these veins. jk more like olive oil.
Great video, my wife and I went there peak fall season in September 2020 one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen!
Place is insane! Excited to make it back there at some point! I bet fall was beautiful with the colors.
Yes you went! Love Mount sneffles
Lauren it was unbelievable! Want to go back. Thanks for the recommendations!
I can't wait to visit and thanks for sharing the list of things to do.
So happy you enjoyed! ☺️
Amazing video
Thanks Emmett! ❤️
I need to go here! So cool!
Beautiful people. So happy. :))
Thank you so much!!
I've been to Telluride a few different times now. I HIGHLY recommend visiting Colin at Living Tea. Besides that, Blue Lake is an absolute MUST. Last time I was in Telluride was in October 2021 for the Fall and man that hike brought back so many memories 😭
Adam we need to go back! A highlight of our travels so far. Pretty hard to beat!
@@FarisandLisa Please don't ever stop with the content. Ya'll are a great couple, the production quality is amazing and you two are naturals. So inspiring! 🤙
Looks beautiful
I was never able to go there when I lived in Colorado, thanks for the tips, nice video!
Now you have a reason to go back! So awesome and one of those places you don’t forget:
Beautiful video guys, thank you for sharing☺☺☺
Thank you!! Appreciate it! ☺️
So much fun…wanna go !
It’s a blast! A mountain bikers dream! You would love it
Beautiful!!!❤
love your content guys!
Thanks Mat!
Nice location
I need to get in shape just to watch all the activities you guys are doing
Hahah don’t have to exercise to eat the pizza :)
I grew up in Telluride. It has changed so much since I lived there. You did a great job showing it. Have you taken the Durango to Silverton narrow gauge railroad? Also, you must go to Ouray and check that out. Also go to Lake City. Also do the Black Bear Pass and Imogene. Oh! Also go to Ophir. Go fishing at Alta Lakes and Trout Lake. Then come back in the winter for some skiing.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks Sean!
Hello you two. Greetings from Switzerland to my old Telluride. I enjoyed watching this now and the visuals were great. Telluride was called little Switzerland and on the wall in the school there, it had the Matterhorn on it.
I was born in New Jersey in 1964 and in 1968 it was off to Idaho, then Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Maine, Breckenridge, Colorado, Oregon, then Telluride Colorado, then outside of Seattle, finishing high school, then California, just north of San Francisco. Met a Swiss girl during my ballet time there and she took me back to Zurich. 33 years here now and all is great. Telluride was and is my favorite place during my journies and John Denver`s Rocky Mountain High makes me cry every time.
Thanks so much for this. Also, on the main street there is a movie theater and it was my first time kissing a girl on the lips during the first Star Wars film. Cannot forget that stuff either.
Hi David! Thanks for sharing your incredible memories. Telluride will forever hold a spot in our memories. If it weren’t for the cost and family we’d be living there in a heartbeat. Hope it hasn’t changed to much!! Now we gotta go to Switzerland to see how they compare 😁
@@FarisandLisa Oh yeah, so nice here, you will enjoy it. Thanks for your feedback.
looks awesome
So much fun! highly recommend going even though it is a little harder to get to then some of the other popular Colorado towns. :)
That is really my dream town. I really hope I can visit or even live there.
Goodluck to you!! It is beautiful there!
I think we got to much food....you think.....lol. I will for sure doing that 3.3 mile hike to see that blue lake with my own eyes.
Haha you will need to do that hike if you eat all the food that we did :) put it on the bucket list Mark!
No mention of the via Ferrata? That’d be the FIRST thing I’d do in Telluride looks incredible 😍
Next time you’re in Telluride come check out Mind Blown Telluride!
If you ever travel to Memphis, be sure and try some BBQ pizza! I know y'all love pizza. It's interesting.
When you guys gets huge and Rich and famous, remember the first couple of thousand subscribers😂 . I enjoy watching the numbers go up each week. One of these days, you guys are just gonna explode on here . The production and content is too good to not. Keep up the great videos!! I feel like I am traveling each week.
Hahah we do love pizza! We are so down for some bbq pizza. We actually just tried Alligator pizza the other day. It’s not actually alligator but the sauce is bbq with shrimp and jalapeños. Sounds random but it was delicious!
Thank you for the nicest comment in the world!! Seriously this gave us the biggest smiles. We are so happy you enjoy the videos! We appreciate everyone who has supported us so early on in our journey 😊
this is crazy that I stumble upon ya'll. I'm a travel vlogger from Denver and I'm in love with a travel plane vlogger girl name Stevie who is from Ann Arbor. One day I will be travel vlogging with her.
I was there in 1977 so no gondola I'm pretty sure but it was really cool hiking to Bridal Veil for sure.
Oh I bet!! One of our favorite US cities!
Going to visit waterfalls around Asheville, NC this weekend in our Revel. We'll make it out there in the Revel some day. Looks beautiful.
Omg you guys are gonna love it! Are you doing Blue Mountain Ridgeway?!
@@FarisandLisa We did the Blue Ridge Parkway last week. Boondocked at Pisgah Inn. We got "The Knock" around midnight. Busted our first try! Felt like two teenagers caught necking. LOL It was a lot of fun. LOL
@@ifly64s 😂😂
Great beautiful
Hi we are about to visit there soon. What month were you guys there?
almost take this town out of the itinerary but decide to put it back in after watching your video. the campsite you stayed right next to the blue lake trailhead, is it the "blue lake hut" marked on google? i am traveling solo next sept and is curious if the trailhead is safe enough to stay overnight in the SUV (i carcamp)
First great video
Thanks Dave! super quick click
@@FarisandLisa just in the right place at the right time. 👍🇺🇸
The sign on the wall of the Gnar Taco restaurant read "PLEASE DON'T FEED THE HIPPES" 🤣
Hahah!! I love that 😂
Thank you so much for your video, I was thinking of doing 4-5 days here and then go Vile, CO. Any other advice. Family of three.
Hi Catri, there is so much to do and lots of options for eating and other activities. It is quite manageable by walking around and you will get the feel of it quickly
Have you done Ice Lake and Iskand Lake?
What route do y’all recommend to hike? I see you can access it through the yankee boy basin trail or the blue lakes hut
Do you want to do all the Blue Lakes, just the Lower, or Just the Upper? Also, are you planning a 4x4 drive?
wow it looks unreal there
Epic spot! Definitely add it to your bucket list. We were pleasantly surprised.
No. The Silver Queen in Aspen is 15 minutes each way and $33 round trip. Took it a few months ago.
Can I take the Gondola ride one way or can I also come back down from that? Thanks for the video
You can take the gondola both ways!
I’m a terrible Native. So many places I haven’t been before 😂
You got time!! ☺️
Hey F and S. Have either of you taken Econ 101? If so you would have learned what’s in demand is costly, what’s not in demand is cheap. If you’re looking for a cheaper place to live look no further than Hawthorn Nevada or Baker California. Let’s not complain about desirable expensive places!
I went there like 5 years ago, and it’s definitely one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been.
Unbelievable and it’s far from a major airport which we think is great and hopefully preserves some of its charm for a long time!
Do you get your liposuction done in Telluride?
love ur video but omg u only get junk food hahaha never seen a pizza looking like that maybe because i am from europe ... hahaha that u got look more like doe and ketchup hahahah lucky the girl do some nice salade .. hope to see some nice steaks on firewood :D
Haha 95% of the time we are eating salads, but sometimes you need to celebrate 😂. They call that type of pizza Detroit style. From Detroit, MIchigan. We are from Michigan. If you come to Michigan we can show you some good Detroit style.
Excellent production, as always. Time for you to grow to 100k subs. I'll give you 6 months. 😚
Thanks Hsia ❤️ you are an OG!
Where do you recommend to stay as a middle-age couple no kids
We stayed in our RV in the local campground. The town really is not that big so whatever is in your budget will be in a decent location for all the thing we did :)
Did y’all ever come across any dangerous wild life? My fear is running into a bear or mountain lion
Gandala lol
Enlighten me!
How much was the hat? $35?😅
$28.95 lol my shopping budget was $30
Hello
The second I saw shopping on the list I checked out. It’s colorado not paris or new York.
How do you guys afford to do this?
Please remember to be respectful of our town. So many tourists have gone off trail and trashed local spots to the point where it’s illegal to access now. Please come experience how amazing my hometown is but BE RESPECTFUL!!!
I don't trust anyone that eats nachos with a fork, that's just un-American 4:33
Hahaha ok fair point 😂
No, just no.
Too much talking head stuff. You need to use way more cutaways. Nobody really wants to see anybody talking. Especially about a hat he wants to buy. This is your problem. Cut away and show the scenery and not your faces. I do admire what you're doing.
NO MASKS! SAY NO!
