Leave your skis at home and venture to Snowmass for the summer. You'll spend 72 hours surrounded by nature — biking through Maroon Bells, hiking for breathtaking views and screaming at the top of your lungs on an alpine coaster.
Sustainability Activity
There are special places and unique vistas around nearly every Colorado corner. You can help ensure these places exist for generations to come by staying on roads and trails, keeping speeds in check, leaving campsites and picnic spots just as you found them, and following instructional signs while you’re out and about in our state.

Bike through the Maroon Bells
Hop on a bike and tour Maroon Bells with Blazing Adventures. Your 12-mile downhill journey takes place on a road that is closed to vehicles most of the summer. It's the best way to experience "the most photographed peaks in North America."
Activity
Enjoy a Concert
In the summer, enjoy free live music concerts on the ski slope as part of the Snowmass Free Concert Series. You'll feel like a local when you set up your picnic basket next to the thousands of families and friends enjoying the sunset and tunes.

Bike to Woody Creek Tavern
The bike trek to the Woody Creek Tavern covers ground that once held the railroad track that came into Aspen. The trail is a smooth dirt double track that follows the picturesque Roaring Fork River. You'll end at The Woody Creek Tavern — a local favorite — a small bar with a large amount of character, and a favorite haunt of Hunter S. Thompson.
