Hike, Horseback, Bike, Boat, Camp, Climb, Fly Fish, and, of course, Golf...
Simply put, summers in Vail are amazing. The ideal weather means you'll spend your time pursuing your favorite passtimes in one of the mose beautiful settings imaginable. Come see what the locals know, but never tell you about Vail Summers:
- Vail Mountain
-- Imagine that its eighty degrees outside, the sun is shining, and you
can hear the roar of the spring runoff. You take a deep breath,
and drive a golf ball twice as far down the fairway than you could even
dream of at sea level. If you then consider that tomorrow you'll
be kayaking, horseback riding, or biking down Vail Mountain, you might
begin to get the idea. Vail is a Summer Paridise, come see for
yourself.
- Beaver Creek -- The exculsive Beaver Creek resort is no less elegant and majestic in the summer than it is in the winter. Experience the best of both worlds, and see what you've been missing. Check your baggage at the gate in exchange for a private, luxurious mountain setting, and maybe a little piece of mind.
- Hiking --
A summer hike in Vail can start just about anywhere. That's
because when you're in the Vail Valley, you are in the heart of
Colorado's high country. Pick a peak, or try a new trail, there's
no end to where you can go and what you'll find there.
- Mountain Biking --
The Summer downhill trails on Vail mountain give new meaning to the
term Mountain Biking. Ride the lift, or work for the single track
on any one of the trails in the Vail Valley.
- Climbing --
There's great rock all over the Vail Valley. Contact a local gear
shop or hire a guide for a day of adventure.
- Kayaking & Rafting
-- The Eagle, the Gore, and the infamous Colorado, just to name a few
of the rivers in the Vail area. Schedule a rafting trip or go
kayaking with your friends, just get out and enjoy the local
waters.
- Fishing -- If you
can float it, you can most assuredly fish it! Head out for a day
of solitude or hire a local guide for the inside track to the
best fishing spots.
- Golf -- Tee off at
the top of a mountain! Vail has more than 13 golf courses
throughout the valley. Try your hand and master them all.
- Summer Concert Series -- Have you ever gone to an outdoor ballet? Would you be interested in listening to a symphony orchestra at sunset? The Summer Concert Series in Vail brings this and much more to the Valley. From Blues and Rock to Mozart and Bach, there's plenty of entertainment all summer in Vail.
- Jeep Touring --
Take a tour off road. Jeep trails wind all over the Rocky
Mountains. The off-road enthusiast will have no shortage of
options off the beaten path.
- Dining and Nightlife
-- Local restaurants offer
discounts of up to 50% of the Winter menu prices during the
summer. You get all the service and quality at a fraction of the
price.
