The Royal Gorge Route Railroad is Colorado's top train experience and America's most scenic railway. Join us to ride and dine with friends and family aboard the Royal Gorge Route Railroad where you'll journey through the winding Royal Gorge, along the Arkansas River, deep within Colorado's grandest canyon. Enjoy gorgeous views from your seats or aboard the open-air car. A full menu of casual dining favorites, cocktails, wine and microbrews is available for purchase throughout your one hour and 50 minute rail tour!

The Royal Gorge Route Railroad is Colorado's most historic rail line, built in the late 1800s during the Silver boom when the two warring railroad companies fought for rights to this coveted canyon. Ultimately, the Denver & Rio Grande won the Royal Gorge War, and in 1882 the Royal Gorge Route became a transcontinental rail link between Denver and Salt Lake.
