Enjoy a fun family vacation rich in history and scientific exploration with the Durango Discovery Package. This package includes lodging combined with a visit to the new Durango Discovery Museum.

Select from a variety of lodging options and include individual or family admission to the museum to receive a special package discount on your whole visit.

 

Please note: The Discovery Museum is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays

 

Durango is famous for its rich frontier history and cultural heritage, but many don't know that it also has a thriving science and technology sector and long history of scientific innovation. Spend a morning, afternoon, or all day exploring the new museum, located in a historical old power plant. The power plant building, circa 1893, was once the hub of AC energy for Durango and the Western Colorado power grid. In fact, this plant powered the street lights of tiny Durango long before electricity was in wide use in the great cities of the East.

 

Bring the family and explore interactive exhibits and activities that make science exciting and fun! It’s hands-on, interactive fun for all ages at a great new place for family adventure, early childhood learning, special events, hanging out by the river, and getting your geek on.
