Lizard Head Pass

Lizard Head Pass is one of the places Roamward flags on the San Juan Skyway because it gives the drive its texture: a 10,200-ft pass with classic San Juan views. Use it as a planned pull-over instead of letting the route become a blur between towns.

How it fits the drive

The San Juan Skyway runs Durango → Silverton → Ouray → Telluride loop, CO. A high-country loop through Colorado’s wildest mountains.

Conditions, access, parking, fees, weather, and seasonal closures can change quickly on scenic routes. Check the managing agency or local visitor information before committing to a side stop.
