Aspen Colorado - Enjoy Your Winter Visit

With world-class shopping, a thriving nightlife scene, wonderful lodging options, as well as the country's best ski resorts all in just a few miles, Aspen, Colorado is the premier place to go for those seeking a thrilling winter getaway.

Although mostly known as an outdoor 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 on this Rocky Mountain resort town.

So let's cover these basics of the visit 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 to become cheap within Aspen. This is the price you'll pay for the privilege of ordering a draft of Fat Tire alongside somebody like say, oh, Seal. (the singer, not the pet.)

The J-Bar on the Hotel Jerome is one of the many Aspen locations where you may run in to the famous and rich. The bar at the Little Nell is another the location where the well-heeled play. To get a bit more local flavor, (and spots a little lighter about the wallet), try the Aspen Brewing Company (kind 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 most recent 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 below are classy. Clothes not your priority? What, are you insane? Oh well, then take pleasure in the many art and home furnishing stores that dot the charming pedestrian malls of downtown Aspen.

Skiing

Ok last one. Aspen has skiing too. The primary resort is Aspen Mountain, or as some locals (and tourists who try too much) refer to it as: Ajax.

Founded in 1947, Aspen mountain may be thrilling (and scaring) skiers on a few of the steepest, most awe-inspiring terrain around. Runs marked "Most Difficult" and "Expert" make-up over half of the runs at Aspen. To get a slower experience, decrease the path a little, to Aspen's quieter little sister, Buttermilk, where gently sloping hills dominate. Aspen Highlands offers the best views, and it has more of a relaxed vibe. It is possible to ski in jeans here (like real Coloradoans often do.) Our final resort, Snowmass, is very warm and friendly. The 21 lifts and acres of terrain will ensure that everyone inherited - from green snow bunny to double-diamond stud - will have a good time.
