Glenwood Springs Getaway Roundtrip from Salt Lake City
3-day Salt Lake City roundtrip rail getaway to Glenwood Springs
Amtrak Vacations runs this three-day, two-night independent rail vacation as a roundtrip between Salt Lake City and Glenwood Springs, Colorado, on the California Zephyr in Coach class. The package includes two nights' hotel accommodations in Glenwood Springs and admission to a Tram and Cave tour of Glenwood Caverns. No day-by-day itinerary is published, so the order of the rail journey and the hotel stay is not specified in advance. Glenwood Springs sits in the Rocky Mountains, and the trip's highlights describe a gondola ride to the top of Iron Mountain with panoramic views, a walking tour of Glenwood Caverns, a visit to the Yampah Spa and Vapor Caves, a soak in the town's mineral hot springs, and a round of golf. This suits independent travelers who want a short, low-key rail getaway to one Colorado mountain town rather than a longer multi-stop tour.
