Winter is just about over and Summer is around the corner. Luckily, we think its one of the best places in the world to spend a summer or a quick weekend getaway. Here’s a few of our favorite things to do in Snowmass during the Summer.
Mountain Biking
The Snowmass Bike Park and the surrounding single track trails are some of the best in the world. Whether you’re into down hill adrenaline, or a light cross country ride, you’ll find it in Snowmass. Here a few great resources to learn more about biking in Snowmass:
Hiking
We may be biased, but we think the Aspen Snowmass area has some of the best hiking in the world. Take a quick jaunt of the Maroon Bells Lake or tackle a 14er (just be prepared for some serious climbing). We’ve got it all. The beautiful Rim Trail is walking distance from Stonebridge Condominiums and dozens more within a few minutes drive. Here are a couple great resources for hiking in Snowmass:

Fly Fishing
No Colorado summer to-do list could be complete without fly fishing. This is a local’s favorite activity and people come from around the globe to fish the Roaring Fork River and golden waters of the Frying Pan. If you’re new the sport, hire a guide to show you the ropes, its no walk in the park for a first timer, but once you get it, you’re hooked. If you know what you’re doing, then just ask the fly shop receptionist what fly’s are working at that time and where. Here’s a few good shops and resources for the area:
