5 days in Aspen Itinerary

Known as a ski resort town, Aspen's history goes back to its roots as a silver-mining village tucked away in an isolated valley of the Rocky Mountains.

Get in touch with nature at Vail Mountain Resort and Beaver Creek Ski Area. Get out of town with these interesting Aspen side-trips: Breckenridge Ski Resort (in Breckenridge) and Thermal Spas (in Glenwood Springs). On the 6th (Thu), dedicate a day to the elevated beauty of Buttermilk Mountain.
