Things to do in Vail, CO

With fun for the whole family in every season, you can plan a chock-full itinerary or take your time exploring this scenic wonderland.

• Hit the slopes. Of course, if you’re in town for ski season, make the most of Colorado’s world-class slopes and fresh powder. Après-ski by the fireplace, in the hot tub, or savoring a warm meal downtown.
• If you’re not into skiing, don’t despair—there are plenty of other ways of enjoying the snowy atmosphere. Play the day away by snowshoeing or tubing, then warm up with a mug of hot cocoa. If you prefer to stay out of the cold, book a spa day in any of Vail Village’s spa offerings or browse boutiques downtown.
• In the warmer months, there are few better ways to savor the fresh mountain air and picturesque scenery than picking up some outdoor recreation. Colorado is a playground of activity, so whether you’re a fan of golfing, biking, or hiking, you’ve found your perfect escape in Vail. Gather together for a horseback ride beneath the trees, enjoy a day of fishing in Gore Creek, or feel an adrenaline rush with a whitewater rafting tour.
• Lace up your sneakers and head to the trails. Explore locally-loved trails for any level of experience and take in unbelievable views. Upper Piney River Waterfall is a favorite 6-mile stretch with waterfall views, Gore Creek Path has an easy family-friendly hike at 1.2 miles, Shrine Ridge Trail offers stunning views of wildflowers, and Game Creek Trail is the place to be if you’re looking to spot some wildlife.
• After working up an appetite, hit the town for a variety of eateries. Vail is known best for its famous mountain breweries, distilleries, and fine-dining restaurants. Sample some local craft beers and dig into beautifully cut steaks, sizzling burgers, or loaded nachos. There are plenty of budget-friendly options as well, including a number of diners, cafes, brunch spots, taverns, and bistros.
• Vail Village has plenty of attractions to check out for every interest as well. Walk the grounds at the Betty Ford Alpine Gardens, swing by the Vail Farmers Market and shop for local produce and crafts, take a trip up the Vail Scenic Gondola, catch a show at the Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater, and tour through the Colorado Snowsports Museum and Hall of Fame. 

Vail Mountain Resort

Constructed in 1962, Vail Mountain Resort is one of Colorado's largest mountain resorts, with over 5,000 skiable acres to enjoy. Whether you're a professional skier (two Olympic medalists were trained on these slopes) or have never seen snow before, Vail Mountain Resort welcomes you. Advanced athletes will love the powdery, challenging bowls, and park enthusiasts both big and small will want to make sure to try out one of the three terrain parks.

Book a group or a private lesson at the Vail Ski and Snowboard School, which has lessons geared for all levels and ages. The Resort even offers child care and adaptive ski programs.

Perhaps you'd like to try something different? How about a ski bike lesson, or a go on the tubing hill? Little snow bunnies will love the kids snowmobile track. Take lessons in specialty sports like snowshoeing or Nordic skiing, or forgo the snow all together for a restorative spa day.  

Vail Village

The town of Vail was built to accommodate the mountain athlete and combines a rich, upscale vibe with a European motif. Due to the sheer size of the mountain, Vail was split into three main base villages: Vail Village, Lionshead, and Golden Peak. These Bavarian-style villages have heated pedestrian streets and a free bus system, exuding an Old World charm dressed to the nines in elegance.

Each village hosts diverse boutiques and apres-ski dining, from sandwich shops to five-star cuisine heralded in national magazines. Sunny pub decks invite you to share a midday beer, while dance clubs, live music, and piano and karaoke bars bring the village to life once the sun sets. But if you don't feel like going out on the town, never fear: Most of our Vail rentals have their own fully-equipped kitchens for quiet meals in. 

What is the best month to go to Vail? 

If you’re looking for prime skiing conditions, plan your Vail vacation for sometime between December and March. December and January typically see the most snowfall of the year. For a summer trip, Vail travel peaks from June to September. The shoulder season in autumn is another great time to visit Vail, when you can enjoy fewer crowds and stunning fall foliage.
