Nestled in the heart of Royal Gorge Country, you’ll feel like you jumped out of the 21st century back into old west where the name of the game was fast guns and slow travel. At Buckskin Joe Frontier Town and Railway, we have provided millions of guests a unique experience and have helped create a ton of fun memories, since 1958.

Start your day’s adventure by hopping on board the Royal Gorge Scenic Railway. This "little train" provides a super big view of the Royal Gorge and bridge from the upper north rim. At Point Alta Vista, reality sets in at the monumental task it took to build the bridge. In short, the Royal Gorge is awe-inspiring!

Disembark from the train and head on up to the frontier town of Buckskin Joe where the old west explodes to life. Head for cover on the boardwalks as gunfights break out throughout the day.

Some are serious, some are comedy but all are entertaining. Authentic, you bet. Soon after our doors opened, Hollywood came calling. Over 20 films have been shot on location at Buckskin Joe including “Cat Ballou” and “The Sacketts”. The wide variety of activities provided at Buckskin Joe Frontier Town and Railway make this park a great place for families, couples, friends, multi-generation reunions, student groups or anyone who wants to experience the best the west has to offer.
