If you love to ski, you may have heard about the wonderful
ski hills and resorts in Colorado. These resorts draw
celebrities and ski experts every ski season. Many
Colorado ski resorts are situated in the Rocky Mountains,
making for ideal ski conditions each year. If you are
planning to visit Colorado for a ski or snowboard trip, you
will have lots of options to choose from.
Aspen is, by far, the most popular ski resort town in
Colorado. Aspen offers visitors snowy hills, and
challenging and varying terrain. But it also offers
visitors the chance to people-watch, both well-to-do folks
and famous celebrities flock to beautiful mountain resort
each year. Aspen used to be a mining town, but is now one
of the hottest vacation destinations in the USA. Aspen
offers visitors a choice of spas, resorts, and fabulous
dining. But it's the ski hills that bring in the most
visitors. It's not a discount area; expect to pay $74 for
an adult day pass at the ski resorts.
Vail is another popular ski resort and constantly ranked as
number one in many ski magazines. With 193 trails covering
5,289 acres, Vail is the largest ski resort in the USA. The
snow condition, terrain and number of challenging runs are
top of the line. The great shopping, restaurants, and
nightlife, makes the town of Vail as a popular destination
for skiers. Vail provides great lessons for skiers and
snowboarders.
A local favorite in Colorado is Copper Mountain Resort. If
you want to know the reason for this then go there. Copper
Mountain has an impressive 125 trails and 22 lifts, no small
feat. The trail system that has been developed here utilises
all the benefits that the mountain provides. This has been
awarded a few times. Though the rates are lower than Aspen
or Vail, the trails are no less exciting.
Powderhorn Resort is a slightly smaller mountain with great
value for day passes. With 29 runs, it offers beginning
and intermediate skiers plenty of challenges. If you'd
rather not ski a challenging run, there are several easy
runs which provide a relaxing day meandering down the
slopes. Not only is the skiing world class, but the
Powderhorn Resort accommodations and restaurants are quite
enjoyable.
For skiers that look for an opportunity to ski all day and
into the night, Keystone resort is the perfect place.
Keystone offers the largest and best night skiing area in
Colorado, in fact in all of North America! Keystone Resort
is composed of three great mountains, which means there are
plenty of great terrain and diverse trails, 116 of them in
all.
Keystone also provides many options besides skiing,
including an exciting nightlife, fantastic restaurants, and
great specials for those guests of the resort.
Even if you don't have too much of money, you can still
enjoy world class skiing and accommodation. Some of these
huge resorts are offering great deals to make good the dream
of spending the week at one of these places. In Colorado,
new resorts are being built, and upgrades are making the old
ones more fabulous than before. That is way Colorado is
known as the home of best Ski resorts in North America.
