Travel by rail
Denver's growth is historically linked to its importance as a rail centre. It is a hub on the major Amtrak east-west route (tel: +1 800 872 7245, in the USA only; www.amtrak.com), with daily services to Chicago and San Francisco on the 'California Zephyr.' Westbound trains pass through Glenwood Canyon, which is one of the most beautiful railway routes in the USA. The 'Southwest Chief,' which links Chicago with Los Angeles, passes through the southeast corner of the State, where a bus link to Denver is available. The Amtrak Winter Park Express (tel: +1 888 923 7275; www.amtrak.com/) makes a scenic two-hour journey through the Rockies to the Winter Park Ski Resort on weekends during the skiing season, January 5th-March 25th, 2018.
Approximate rail journey times:
From Denver to Salt Lake City is 15 hours 30 minutes, to Chicago is 19 hours and to San Francisco is 34 hours.
