At Gardenswartz, we believe the best way to start or end a work day is by taking advantage of the amazing trail systems Durango has to offer, which is why we strive to carry a well rounded selection of trail running gear. We offer a variety of shoes designed for every level runner, whether you’re just headed out for a quick loop in Horse Gulch, or training for the Imogene Pass run. You’ll also find a selection of men’s and women’s running apparel to help keep you comfortable on the trails. We also stock low profile backpacks, hip packs, and handled bottles to make sure you stay hydrated during your run.

The Durango area has lots of climbing options to offer and at Gardenswartz, we’ve got the gear to get you out exploring the crag. We carry a selection of companies that cater to trail and sport climbers alike, as well as the basic gear necessary for bouldering. Not sure where to head on your next adventure?

Here in the San Juans, you’ll find no shortage of mountains to summit. From classic treks up the local 14ers to the legendary Wham Ridge, we’ve got the gear to help you reach your goal. You’ll also find our bookshelves are stocked with local guidebooks to help you get stoked for your weekend adventure. If you’re in for the early season of peak bagging, we can equip you with ice tools, crampons, mountaineering boots, and technical apparel.

Outdoor adventuring doesn’t stop when the snow flies! Stop by Gardenswartz to pick up your winter gear.
