Lake County Information
Leadville and Twin Lakes are mountain communities whose people treasure their quality of life. Over 75% of Lake County is public land offering a wide variety of year-round outdoor recreation. While both communities are rural in nature, Leadville offers the most services including antique and gift shops, grocery stores, gas stations, hospital and medical services, schools and colleges. Access to Interstate 70 is 24 miles north of Leadville, with Vail and Breckenridge only a 45 minute drive. Buena Vista is 38 miles to the south. Tourism is a major contributor to the local economy, however, the area strives to maintain its "real town" atmosphere. The city has not been redesigned to be a glitzy tourist area, and visitors and newcomers are welcome. You can be as involved or as alone as you wish.
