Above It all Balloon Company, with its convenient Snowmass location, will guide you above and beyond the Elk Mountain Range of the Aspen and Snowmass areas. This is the perfect family activity for children six years and older.
Hiking
Snowmass Mountain
Put your body to work and your eyes to beauty and go on a hike right in Stonebridge Condominium’s backyard. For a great family hike, try the Rim Trail and be amazed by the view of Snowmass Village at the top. If you choose to take it easy, the Ditch Trail is a short and flat hike that is surrounded by beauty. For a more challenging hike, backpack up the East Snowmass Trail with an alpine lake view at the top. Pack a lunch on any of these hikes for a rewarding picnic at the end of your hike.
EAT
Bring some food along to these activities and make a picnic. Snowmass Village offers fast to-go restaurants that are perfect to pack.
