Redcliff Colorado

Red Cliff is a community in Eagle County. Red Cliff is located nine miles south of interstate 70 and Minturn on Hwy 24.

Red Cliff, Colorado is a very old town - the oldest in the county in fact! It held the first county seat, and contains friendly people with a great attitude toward life. Sitting at 9,000 feet above sea level, Red Cliff used to be full of saloons, a bank, sawmills and an opera house. This was when it was a thriving mining town in the early 1900s. Today it's a cute mountain community that still attracts both adventurous and more conservative road tripping families. Those who love the great outdoors can enjoy bicycling, hiking, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, climbing, and wildflower viewing.

There are also a lot of rumors going around that the fishing here is fantastic. Frankly, the rumors are really true, as avid fishermen flock here each year to enjoy the abundant waters.
