Snowmass Ski Area

The Heart of Winter in Snowmass

Snowmass is the third largest ski area in Colorado, consistently ranked among the best in North America. Known for its wide-open groomers and top-notch ski school, ideal for beginners and families, Snowmass also offers over 1,000 acres of double-black diamond terrain, plus three terrain parks with 80+ features from beginner boxes to a 22-foot Superpipe. With an average of two skiers per acre, your time in Snowmass is spent making turns instead of waiting for yours. Plus, your lift ticket grants access to all four Aspen Snowmass mountains – Snowmass, Aspen, Highlands, and Buttermilk. 

The description of a perfect ski mountain is right there in our name. Snowmass is covered with perfect Colorado powder, and massive enough to offer up every type of terrain from serene to extreme. Twenty speedy lifts (but rarely lift lines) deliver you to more than 3,300 acres of snow sports smorgasbord, including 98 trails totaling 150 miles which vary from cruisers to cliff bands, plus three terrain parks and pipes, all at Aspen Snowmass.

What people are saying…

World Extreme Skiing Champion (and local) Chris Davenport, says, “Snowmass has some of the best steeps, cliffs, couloirs, backcountry, terrain parks, and powder anywhere in North America.” But he isn’t the only one who thinks so. Snowmass consistently ranks as one of the best winter ski areas and mountain destinations in the world. Check out a recent list of awards & honors from those who agree.
