Lizzy & Steve’s Mancos Photo Guidebook
Sightseeing
Mancos is a quiet, but up-and-coming town, with organic farmers, a happening cidery and brewpub, and the home of the most renown packraft manufacturer in the world, Alpacka Raft. The community is a nice mix of ranchers, farmers, young families and outdoors people. People don't mind your guns or if you're gay. Smoke marijuana or stick to the wide variety of beer offered at the Mancos Brewing Company (and try their pizza, too! Yum). All types of people are welcome in this small town. It's well worth it to drive, ride a bike or take a long walk in town and in the country, which is just a mile outside of town. Long country roads with few cars offer views of ranches, 100-year-old barns, horses, and hay fields. You'll probably see deer in the fields, along with the cows. Wild animals abound if you go a bit further onto BLM land in Weber Canyon or up into the mountains. There are plenty of public lands to explore in and around Mancos, all very easily accessible. It's just beautiful here!

This is a lovely place to take a short hike, go fishing or to hang out by the water on a hot summer day.

SO many great trails at Phil's, and it's just 15 minutes from Mancos. Don't be discouraged by a full parking lot on weekends. All the trails are one-way, so you still don't see many people. Best trails around for beginners to experts!
