Reviews
We visited and ride at Vail for a 4-day snowboarding trip. We did a deep dive and fully explored & experienced all parts of the mountain. If you are taking the shuttles, the best and fastest way to get onto and around the mountain is to take the gondola/Born free chairlift to the upper/mid mountain from Lionshead village, so you can avoid a long distance walk in the Vail village while carrying all your gears. The snow conditions are on point, the grooming is fantastic, and the back bowls are amazing!! It’s a must have experience if you haven’t done it. Highly recommended!!!!!!

Vail is so iconic! All kinds of specialty shops, restaurants, and outstanding views! Don't miss the Betty Ford Alpine Gardens or the Colorado Snowsports Museum and Hall of Fame (both free!). Complimentary bus service makes traveling through the valley easy and fun!

I love visiting Vail. It's always well kept and clean. They groom so much terrain and are so big that when they "only" have 1/3 of Vail open there's still more groomed terrain than other spots.
