These vehicles can easily squeeze within the limited parking spaces available within the city center as well as the downtown area. Besides, compact vehicles are convenient for navigating Gunnison’s narrow streets. However, if you intend to travel around the city outskirts and far-flung areas, then getting an economy rental would make a lot of sense.

And once you get to the interstate or expressway, you can drive at up to 60 mph. However, do pay attention to the road conditions and adjust your speed prudently. As a general rule, avoid high speeds when the roads are slippery due to rain or ice.

  • Where are the best places to park in Gunnison?

    Finding parking in Gunnison city center can be a challenge thanks to the limited number of available parking lots. That said, you can try your luck in Downtown Gunnison where you are likely to find several metered parking.
