Things to Do  

Register Cliff

Register Cliff, Torrington

 toonsarah Says:  To the west of Torrington and just south of the small town of Guernsey is quite an amazing sight. Pioneers travelling west on the Oregon Trail would regularly stop here as it was a convenient day’s wagon ride (11 miles) beyond Fort Laramie. At Register Cliff they would carve... 

Oregon Trail Ruts

Oregon Trail Ruts, Torrington

 toonsarah Says:  This is one of two amazing historical sights in more or less the same spot, to the west of Torrington and just south of the small town of Guernsey. In many places in Wyoming you’ll find memories of those who crossed the state following the Oregon Trail to a new life further... 

Fort Laramie

Fort Laramie, Torrington

 toonsarah Says:  Fort Laramie was established as a private fur trading fort in 1834 and became a significant stopping place for those following the Oregon Trail. Here they could rest and replenish their supplies, trade and share travellers’ tales. From 1849 onwards the Fort was in the hands...

Days Inn: Nice Semi-Budget Hotel, Torrington

 Basaic Says:  This Days Inn was slightly more expensive than most but had some nice extras. The indoor pool was great, the rooms had a microwave and small refrigerator, and there is a restaurant and bar attached. I did not eat dinner at the restaurant but ate the complimentary hot... 

Restaurants  

Deacons Restaurant: Nice Country Restaurant

Deacons Restaurant: Nice Country Restaurant, Torrington

 Basaic Says:  Deacons serves what we would call "country" cooking. Meat potatoes, vegetables. Lots of fried items. No thought to cholesterol. Decor was minimal. Service was good. Portions were average. I would probably eat elsewhere next time I am in town not because there is anything...

Deacon's Restaurant: The Place to Be in Torrington, Torrington

 gt_ky Says:  Although Deacon's falls under the description of "diner" - it is SO MUCH MORE! The ambience is simple, clean, American-style. It is an old place (AKA, Well-Established!) and they have a huge local following. There are a lot of old-timers who come here every day for... 

Canton Dragon: Definite Local Favorite!

Canton Dragon: Definite Local Favorite!, Torrington

 gt_ky Says:  The Canton Dragon has been totally packed with people every time I've been there. I think we've gone there on nearly every trip I've made to Torrington! Sunday afternoons are always packed with locals partaking of the lunch buffet. The buffet has enough on it to satisfy... 

Deacons: Good choice for breakfast

Deacons: Good choice for breakfast, Torrington

 toonsarah Says:  Although the Best Value Inn where we stayed offers a free continental breakfast, I was in the mood for eggs so we went next door to this family style restaurant, and weren’t disappointed. Both the eggs and the accompanying hash browns were very good, the orange juice came in...

Nightlife  

Sports, Music and Drinks

Sports, Music and Drinks, Torrington

 Basaic Says:  The Showtime Lounge is a sports bar with occasional live music and a small dance floor. It is attached to the Days Inn. There were some locals coming in after work when I was there mostly to watch sports, drink and unwind. They all knew both girls tending bar and seemed to...
