See the Unseen West
Like Rocky Mountaineer's Canadian rail routes, the Rockies to the Red Rocks route is steeped in history and full of opportunities to explore the magnificent scenery and iconic destinations of the region. This route brings the Rocky Mountaineer experience, including access to incredible landscapes, exceptional hospitality and regionally-inspired gourmet meals, to the American Southwest.
The journey will put you in the heart of stunning scenery and is filled with highlights best seen from the comfort of expansive glass-dome trains. Natural archways and chromatic deserts are just the beginning. The train winds alongside rivers, through mountain ranges and past ancient rock canyons as it travels between the mile-high city of Denver and the red rock formations of Moab.
Breathtaking Scenery
Vast canyons, inspiring deserts and enchanting hoodoos are just some of the highlights.
Exceptional Service
Our team of onboard Hosts will provide world-class SilverLeaf Service throughout your journey.
Spacious Glass-Domes
See all the sights along the way through the expansive glass-dome coaches of Rocky Mountaineer.
