Aspen Snowmass

Aspen Snowmass: four mountains for skiing and summer fun in Colorado

Aspen Snowmass is a mountain destination that brings together four mountains —Aspen Mountain, Aspen Highlands, Buttermilk, and Snowmass— and two towns in a single setting of nature, culture, and recreation. The company sells season passes, lift tickets, ski and snowboard rentals, ski and snowboard lessons, lodging, summer activities, dining, and its own retail shops.

Winter season and passes

For the 2026-2027 season, the company offers season passes in different options: unlimited access, weekday skiing, or flexible multi-day options, including the new Flex Pass. A single lift ticket provides access to all four mountains. The site indicated that booking at least 30 days in advance saves 25% when purchasing four days or more.

Ski and snowboard rentals can be reserved for the winter season: 30 days in advance the discount was 20% at Four Mountain Sports, and seven days in advance, 10%. Ski and snowboard lessons for winter 2026-2027 include group sessions and private instruction for all ages and levels.

Summer on the four mountains

In summer, the lifts and gondolas provide access to scenic viewpoints, outdoor dining, and on-mountain events. The new Family Sightseeing Package is designed so the whole family can head up the mountain. Each of the four mountains has its own summer offering:

• Aspen Mountain: gondola rides, hiking, yoga, live music, and nature programs accessible from town.
• Aspen Highlands: basecamp for excursions to Maroon Bells and other mountain activities.
• Buttermilk: non-lift-accessed biking, wildflower hiking trails, and views of Pyramid Peak.
• Snowmass: the largest mountain, with Snowmass Bike Park, Lost Forest, and the Elk Camp Gondola for sightseeing.

Snowmass Bike Park and bike rentals

Snowmass Bike Park has more than 25 miles of lift-accessed downhill and technical trails, with terrain for every skill level, from green to double black, a mid-mountain learning center, and bike clinics and school all summer long. The bike rental service covers e-bikes for routes like Maroon Bells, mountain bikes for singletrack, and town bikes for cruising around Aspen.

Lost Forest and Camp Aspen Snowmass

Lost Forest, in Snowmass, offers activities for all ages: ropes courses, an alpine coaster, miles of trails, a high-mountain fishing pond, disc golf, paintball, and a climbing wall. Camp Aspen Snowmass organizes kids' activities with single-day and multi-day options.

Dining, shopping, and summer events

The summer dining offering ranges from grab-and-go meals to leisurely lunches with views and locally sourced ingredients. As for shopping, Aspen Snowmass has several Four Mountain Sports and Aspen Collection shops to gear up or pick up something special during your stay. The summer calendar includes running and bike races, free outdoor concerts, yoga, and other events.
