In this one-day travel guide, I’ll share with you some of the best things to do, eat and see in Aspen & Snowmass Village. We’re enjoying so beautiful hikes in Maroon Bells, taking one of the longest gondola rides in North America to the top of a mountain, riding an alpine coaster, enjoying a memorial garden, seeing ice caves and waterfalls, driving one of the highest pass in Colorado and of course some great dining and a brewery. Aspen offers so many unique summer activities and attractions and is a perfect mountain town to spend a full day exploring in Colorado. Follow along as I share with you my complete one-day travel guide to Aspen, Colorado.

      It’s pretty nice video though rhe area’s tourism is highly taxing on ecological concerns. (Quitting single use stuff like condiment packaging, etc would be smart to start). Enjoy the journey with consciousness.

One of it is called Elk Camp Chair Lift, I believe, and the views up there was spectacular. This video does not cover it, but for anyone taking Elk Camp Gondola, don't miss the chair lifts.

    • @JeanieMarie

      It will be winter in Aspen in November, and you can expect lots of snow. I'm assuming they close it down for winter due to all the snow they get.

I’m going out to CO the last week of June/first week of July.. and this is my 6th visit out there and I’ll be staying with friends that live in Windsor, CO so of course I will be hiking throughout Rocky Mt NP, but we want to road trip it to either Maroon Bells or Crested Butte with a possible one night of camping I was thinking Crested Butte and Maroon Bells were closer. But maybe I’m wrong … if I had to pick one to visit , which should I pick? Any other tips, tricks, suggestions would be helpful! Thank you !😊💕
