1. Ski or Snowboard in Aspen/Snowmass

Even if you’ve never hit the slopes before, skiing is a must-do in Colorado. If you’re skiing or snowboarding in the Centennial State, you’ll want to do it in Aspen/Snowmass. With four mountains, two towns, and one unforgettable experience, Aspen/Snowmass is THE destination for winter sports.

3. Visit Every Colorado National Park

Did you know? Colorado has four National Parks — Rocky Mountain, Mesa Verde, Great Sand Dunes, and Black Canyon of the Gunnison. Their natural and man-made wonders range from mountains to Ancestral Puebloan dwellings to sand dunes. You’ll feel like you’ve traveled to a new world with each destination. Visit one or check them all off!

5 Activities to Enjoy in Aspen in the Spring 

Skiing 

Spring is still a prime time to enjoy the thrill of winter sports. If you want to hit the slopes and spend a day skiing Colorado’s mountains, you can! Head over to Snowmass Ski Resort and treat yourself to an unforgettable adventure. Just remember to bring sunscreen and Chapstick! 

Cross-Country Skiing 

If alpine skiing isn’t your cup of tea, try cross-country instead. This is a great option for travelers who still want to enjoy the outdoors and make the most of the snow. Not only is cross-country skiing an excellent workout, but it also offers the chance to explore trails that are off-the-beaten-path in Aspen’s lush forest. The Aspen Nordic Trail System is the perfect place for beginners to start! 

Horseback Riding 

When weather permits, horseback riding can be a fun and unique activity for you and your loved ones to try. Imagine strolling Aspen’s landscape on saddleback, channeling your inner cowboy or cowgirl in the mountains! Maroon Bells Guide and Outfitters offers scenic rides for the entire family. They are also conveniently located just outside of downtown Aspen. If you’re feeling romantic, book a lunch or dinner ride for two with a picnic included. 

Hiking and Mountain Biking 

Spring in Aspen also welcomes the return of warmer temperatures and lush flora and fauna. If you want to hit the trails after a long winter, now is the time! Our area boasts many wonderful hiking and mountain biking trails that you and your group will love. Whether you are a novice or experienced hiker/biker, you’re in for a memorable adventure. 

Shopping 

Another spring activity to consider is shopping. There’s nothing like taking a leisurely stroll downtown and indulging in some retail therapy! Treat yourself to a new outfit, skiing accessories, or gear for your outdoor adventures. Before you return to your vacation rental, make sure you book a table at one of downtown Aspen’s many restaurants and try our delicious, locally sourced food.
