Nederland

Nederland coined the slogan “life is better up here”. It celebrates the rugged but beautiful mountain scenery and embraces Nederland’s rich mining and mountain history. It’s quirky, rustic and fiercely independent and you’ll see all of it in eccentric and eclectic collection of locals.

Nederland is not for everyone. The winters are longer; they take a toll on buildings and infrastructure and can shut down the main roads out of town. But the recreation and scenery is breathtaking.

Nederland is a way of life that you will love or it will grind you out straight back down the hill to the Plains.
