Summertime brings beautiful flowers and warm, arid temperatures. The autumn months are accentuated by the epic changing colors of the leaves. Each season brings its own unique experiences on the train.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Come hungry<\/h4>\n

The all-inclusive culinary service on the train is a delight for the senses with highlights of regional flavors and ingredients, which continues throughout the two-day journey. From two-course breakfasts to three-course lunches, not to mention the continual beverage service, Rocky Mountaineer guests do not leave the train hungry. One of the more popular dishes is the roasted pork loin, which is seasoned with rosemary, Durango honey, and a whole grain mustard demi-glace, and served with local seasonal vegetables.\u00a0Meals are served at your seat so you never miss a moment of the breathtaking scenery.<\/p>\n

Enjoy a lounge car on rails<\/h4>\n

Guests interested in having more space to roam can choose to book the SilverLeaf Plus experience for access to the adjacent lounge car. In the lounge car, guests can enjoy an enhanced beverage service with additional wine and spirits options served by a dedicated onboard host. Guests will also discover an unexpected benefit of the lounge car \u2014 it is the ideal spot to meet and socialize with fellow guests from around the world.<\/p>\n

Denver, the Mile High City, is well known for its local craft breweries. In Glenwood Springs, guests can take a dip in the world\u2019s largest mineral hot springs pool, which is an enjoyable way to celebrate the end of a travel day.\u00a0Moab is situated between two national parks, Arches and Canyonlands, making it the perfect home base for any adventure.<\/p>\n
