World-class skiing is the first thing that comes to mind when most people think of Vail, and that's certainly true, but this town of lift operators and bartenders mingling with professionals and celebrities has many stories to tell. Beautiful scenery, bountiful activities and unrivaled resorts combine to create the ultimate Vail Colorado getaway any time of year.

Two other sports have become popular in Vail: golfing and cycling. Well-maintained golf courses and long, paved trails throughout town and up Vail Pass have made it easy to enjoy these pursuits. The nearby 10th Mountain Division Hut System is a great excuse to get into the backcountry, and the surrounding White River National Forest is full of trails.
Water activities are varied in Vail where visitors can head to Gore Creek for kayaking, Eagle River for rafting, and fish in six mountain lakes. The extensive Betty Ford Alpine Gardens and Colorado Ski Museum Ski Hall of Fame are always top stops.
There is a myriad of things to do in Vail. Spend an invigorating day in the sunshine and fresh Colorado air, stroll through the boutique-lined streets, or let go of life's stresses while enjoying a soothing spa treatment. At the end of the day, enjoy a wide variety of dining choices to suit every palate, and then cap off the evening at an outdoor concert, a local pub, or curled up in a cozy lodge.
From family fun or a romantic weekend, to an outdoor adventure or international shopping, it's all here. Vail is a world-renowned vacation destination nestled in the Colorado Rockies.
