5 days in Vail Itinerary

Originally built as a base for Vail Ski Resort, the town of Vail has blossomed into its own destination, but still has less than 6,000 permanent residents.

Change things up with these side-trips from Vail: Breckenridge (Main Street & Blue River Sports), Frisco Adventure Park (in Frisco) and Aspen Mountain / Ajax (in Aspen). And it doesn't end there: tour the pleasant surroundings at Vail Recreation Path, stroll around Ford Park, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Vail Interfaith Chapel, and trek along Booth Falls Trail.

To see where to stay, traveler tips, other places to visit, and more tourist information, refer to the Vail trip itinerary website.

Expect a daytime high around 62°F in August, and nighttime lows around 46°F.
