Aspen Colorado - Enjoy Your Winter Visit

With world-class shopping, a thriving nightlife scene, wonderful lodging options, and also the country's best ski resorts all within a few miles, Aspen, Colorado will be the premier place to go for those seeking an exciting winter getaway.

Although mostly called an outdoors winter recreation hub, Aspen offers something for all. Luxurious spas, theatre, shopping (yes we mentioned that again), and highly-rated restaurants some of the attractions you'll find in this Rocky Mountain resort town.

So let's cover these basics of any trip to Aspen, Colorado: shopping, nightlife, and skiing.

Aspen, Colorado nightlife.

Some people want a casual, laid-back hotel bar with affordable drinks and friendly service. So enjoy your vacation to Copper Mountain.

Just kidding. Try not to expect the libations being cheap here in Aspen. That is the price you'll buy the privilege of ordering a draft of Fat Tire next to somebody like say, oh, Seal. (the singer, not the pet.)

The J-Bar on the Hotel Jerome is one of the many Aspen locations in which you may run to the famous and rich. The bar in the Little Nell is an additional the location where the well-heeled play. To get a a bit more local flavor, (and spots just a little lighter about the wallet), try the Aspen Brewing Company (type of touristy), or Zane's. (More sports-oriented.)

Shopping

Galena Street downtown, right smack in the heart of Aspen, is the hub for world-class shopping. Whether it is charming, unique boutiques, the newest in trendy ski wear, fabulous jewelry designers, or famous, exclusive stores, you'll leave Aspen looking better than once you arrived. Perhaps the consignment stores listed here are classy. Clothes not your priority? What, have you been insane? Oh well, then take pleasure in the myriad of art and home furnishing stores that dot the charming pedestrian malls of downtown Aspen.

Skiing

Oh yeah. Aspen has skiing too. The key resort is Aspen Mountain, or as some locals (and tourists who try too hard) refer to it as: Ajax.

Founded in 1947, Aspen mountain has been thrilling (and scaring) skiers on some of the steepest, most awe-inspiring terrain around. Runs marked "Most Difficult" and "Expert" constitute over 50 % of the runs at Aspen. For a slower experience, drop the road somewhat, to Aspen's quieter little sister, Buttermilk, where gently sloping hills dominate. Aspen Highlands provides the best views, and has more of a laid back vibe. It is possible to ski in jeans here (like real Coloradoans often do.) Our final resort, Snowmass, is extremely warm and friendly. The 21 lifts and acres of terrain will make sure that everybody in the family - from green snow bunny to double-diamond stud - may have a lot of fun.
