Bar D Chuckwagon
Celebrates 41st Season!

The Bar D Chuckwagon has served over two million guests. Located under the majestic red cliffs in the Animas Valley a few miles north of Durango, the Bar D has been open every summer evening since 1969, offering a live stage show and chuckwagon supper. The show lasts nearly an hour and is fun for the whole family. The Bar D Wranglers perform songs about the Old West in the style of classic cowboy movies. The show blends tunes with three-part harmony, high-energy instrumentals, and comedy.

The show starts right after a delicious barbecue supper with a choice of roast beef, chicken breast, or rib-eye steak, including homemade biscuits, foil-wrapped potato and baked beans. The serving line can serve 700 guests in less than 30 minutes, using metal plates and cups reminiscent of those carried by the chuckwagons in the Old West.

The show is performed outdoors under the Colorado sky. When the weather is rainy, the eating area is covered. Supper is served at 7:30 pm sharp and the show finishes around 9:30 pm. There are several souvenir shops with the feel of a frontier town, an authentic reconstruction of an Old West chapel, and a miniature train for the kids to ride around the Bar D spread.

A favorite Durango area attraction that is fun for the whole family!
