About Denver

The perfect blend of outdoor adventure and urban sophistication: That’s the duality locals love about the Mile High City. With snowcapped peaks providing a spectacular backdrop, Denver is as refined as it is laid-back. It’s a place where aerospace engineers rub elbows with rock climbers at local brewpubs, at art festivals, or while strolling through their favorite pedestrian mall. And with 300 days of sunshine per year, it’s easy to see why people fall in love with Denver the first time they visit.

Colorado is home to many world-class ski resorts. Whether visitors are planning a Colorado ski vacation, searching for a Colorado ski pass or ticket, or looking for a day of a snow shoe or cross country Colorado snow skiing, many options are available just west of Denver in Colorado's snowy Rocky Mountains.

Some of the Colorado Ski resorts closer to Denver include Winter Park Ski Resort, Loveland Ski Resort, Arapahoe Basin Ski Resort & Eldora Mountain Resort (near Boulder).
