An Aspen Snowmass ski holiday combines the thrill of piste skiing with glamourous lodges, luxury hotels, designer boutiques and a choice of fabulous restaurants.
Once Colorado's famed silver mining town, today you can walk around the cosy Snowmass village and be transported into an all-American ski town with style. Ideal for families, you'll find plenty of activities beyond the slopes at this world-class spot.
With acres of skiable terrain, Aspen is something of a winter sport paradise. It comprises four major ski resorts — all served by the region's superb network of ski lifts, which is included in one comprehensive lift pass. Aspen Mountain, Highlands and Snowmass are fantastic for intermediate skiers and slightly more challenging terrain, whereas Buttermilk is ideal for beginners.
You'll also find three dedicated beginner-friendly zones in Snowmass — Elk Camp, Assay Hill and Fanny Hill — making it a fantastic choice for families with junior skiers.
Beyond its incredible mountain views and expansive terrain, the off-piste hospitality is what makes this one of the top ski destinations in the US. Expect exclusive resorts with exceptional amenities, world-class dining and one of the best après ski scenes in North America, comprising hip jazz bars and the famous Cloud Nine Alpine Bistro.
