Aspen is famous for its world-class skiing, its exciting nightlife, and its favored status among the rich and famous. The Aspen area is also host to many world class ski events. Aspen Mountain remains one of the more glamorous of the Colorado resorts. It also maintains its status as the only remaining resort in Colorado reserved strictly for skiers, so if you like to ride instead of ski, you'll have to take the free shuttle to one of the three other nearby resorts (Aspen Highlands, Snowmass, and Buttermilk) that together comprise the City of Aspen resorts.

In addition to skiing, visitors can enjoy a multitude of activities including dog-sled rides, ice skating, snowmobiling, and many other outdoor sports.  The after ski scene is top notch at a multitude of bars and restaurants, ranging from pizza joints to five-star establishments, they will suit most anyone's taste.

Aspen Highlands Another of  the four mountains that comprise the Aspen resort,  Aspen Highlands is the locals' favorite for expert and extreme terrain. This ski and snowboard resort also has the youngest lift system in the industry.

Freestyle Fridays, the longest running freestyle event in the country, take place every Friday beginning in mid-February. Enjoy watching some of Colorado's best bump-and-jump skiers perform their most daring tricks.  Lost, just look for the crowd gathered at the Merry-Go-Round restaurant. Link      Book Rooms

 

Beaver Creek  After a day of challenging yourself on Beaver Creek's terrain, which ranges from moguls to open powder bowls to gladded terrain, you'll want to enjoy the classy but small slope side ski village.

The even distribution between beginner, intermediate, and advanced slopes makes this a good destination for families, and kids will especially enjoy the resorts 'Adventure Zones'. The resort caters to families and offers planned activities every night of the week, including a Monday night Figure Skating Series and Tuesday night Movie Scenes.

Snowboarders find plenty of excitement at three terrain parks, and World Cup racers name Beaver Creek's Birds of Prey run as one of the top three in the world.  Link   Book Rooms

 

Breckenridge Breckenridge Ski Area covers 2,043 acres across four interconnected mountains. The old mining town resort features 23 lifts and rises 3,398 feet from base to mountaintop. In addition to having the world-class ski and snowboard resort in its backyard, the town of Breckenridge, a charming Victorian village founded in 1859, offers unlimited opportunity for any visitor.

Any visit to this historic Colorado ski town is certain to be rewarding. There's still gold here it just comes in a different form. Link     Book Rooms

 

Buttermilk Mountain, another of the four Aspen resorts  is a beginners dream-come-true. The resort offers a full range of classes and special programs. Since there is no expert terrain here, advanced skiers and snowboarders should choose one of the other Colorado resorts. For those who enjoy an evening workout, Buttermilk is a popular place for locals who snowshoe to the summit under the light of the moon, then ski or snowboard to the bottom. Of course after ski is the old town of aspen itself. Founded on mineral exploration its cash is in snow now. Link    Book Rooms

 

Copper Mountain  Copper Mountain boasts excellent terrain suited for skiers and snowboarders of all levels. The resort's 21 lifts provide access to 2,433 acres of territory, and continuing improvements in both lodging and amenities promise to make this one of the premier Colorado resorts.

The town of Copper Mountain offers more than 40 shops and restaurants, a racquet/athletic club, and other recreational opportunities including snowmobiling, snow tubing, and snowshoeing. Though not as glitzy as some of the other nearby resorts, Copper Mountain remains a favorite with Colorado locals for its down-to-earth mountain hospitality and good terrain. Link     Book Rooms
