Vail happens to be home to the finest ski and snowboard school in the world. Each instructor is dedicated to developing each skier at his or her desire pace. For those who seek a smoother ride with little to no effort, Vail tubing may be the way to go. Adventure Ridge at Vail provides ski bikes, snowmobile tracks, and a slippery slope filled with tubing lanes.

Vail Mountain can be reached by three base areas, including Vail Village, Lionshead, and Golden Park.

After a day of skiing, you can relax and enjoy a microbrew, sprawl out on a massage table at an area spa, or enjoy the many boutique shops, art galleries, and bars that line the streets of Vail Village.
