The Soul of the Valley
Carbondale’s deep roots with art, nature, and commune living trace back to its 19th-century beginnings. Originally a ranching community feeding the miners of Aspen, it has evolved into a "Creative District" where city transplants shed their suits for mountain life.
Sitting at the confluence of the Roaring Fork and Crystal Rivers, and dominated by the majestic 12,965-ft Mount Sopris, this town attracts buyers who want the Colorado lifestyle—spectacular recreation, locavore dining, and friendly neighbors—without the intensity of the upper valley.
Ranching and farming are still well and alive in Carbondale. The best way to sample the goods is through the town’s top restaurants:
Carbondale is a haven for artists. The Rio Grande ARTWay offers a one-mile public arts venue, while the Powers Art Center showcases world-class collections.
