Located at the meeting of the southern slopes of the Grand Mesa, the world’s largest flattop mountain, and the flatlands of the Uncompahgre and Gunnison River Valleys, quiet Cedaredge offers pleasant views of nearby orchards. Cedaredge’s Pioneer Town, a reconstructed 19th-Century Western village stands complete with mining and Native American museums and another 20 structures, including a blacksmith shop, jail, chapel, and one-room schoolhouse.
Looking for a relaxing hangout? Head to the simple city park in the heart of town. And for the real flavor of Cedaredge, hit the annual Applefest - where local apple harvests are celebrated each October on Main Street with booth and games. Extend your stay at the Cedars’ Edge Llamas Bed and Breakfast, where owners, the Records, breed and raise llamas. Breakfast is served in a peaceful, outdoor setting while you gaze up at Grand Mesa. |
