Colorado’s big name ski areas have always attracted fame. Yet Aspen and Vail are just the beginning. Over 25 different resorts sprinkle the state, and families can find great skiing for just about any skill level, budget, or personality.

When planning a ski vacation for the family, consider your kids’ ages, physical abilities, and appreciation of adventure. Be realistic about your own finances and energy levels, too.

Colorado offers top of the line, all-details-catered-to luxury experiences on the slopes, but you might prefer a town with amenities for non-skiers. Could be a no-frills, down home family resort is more comfortable for you.

At Family Travel Colorado, we will help you explore ski resorts from quiet little hideaways to the famous, star-studded mountains. We will give you our take on their services and slopes. And we find a few surprises.

Somewhere in Colorado, a great ski vacation waits for you.
