If you want to ski down the mountain, you'll need to make your way to the top of it first. Hop on Mountain Village Gondola and enjoy the ride.
Located in Telluride, this mountainside transportation system is well worth including on your itinerary. But you'll find loads more to check out in the area. Telluride Gondola Station, Telluride Ski and Golf Club, and Blue Lakes Trail aren't too far from San Sofia Gondola Station.
