Colorado's hiking Trails
Hiking is the Vail Valley's most popular summer adventure activity. It's as easy as you want to make it, and the views are spectacular! Walk among the wildflowers, tackle a "fourteener" (a mountain with a 14,000 ft. peak), or just head along one of Beaver Creek's many marked trails or paths.
Beaver Creek's Colorado Hiking Center offers 1-hour, half-day, full day and private nature hikes and climbs for all ages and ability levels. Expert local guides will help you find the best areas and trails. Nordic walking, which is popular in Europe, is also offered. Watch for special trips and programs to be offered in the summertime. Open 7 days a week from 9:00a.m - 4:00 p.m. For reservations, please contact your concierge or call 970-845-5373
Self guided walking is another option for East West Resorts' guests. Pick up a summer trail map, wear sunscreen, bring water, and set out on one of the many marked trails. Centennial Lift runs to Spruce Saddle, 10,200 feet above sea level, depending on the weather. Take the chair lift up for panoramic mountain views and an easier downhill walk. Keep in mind that Beaver Creek Village is at an elevation of 8,125 feet.
