Enjoy Late Season Skiing and Riding

Spring weather doesn’t kick in right away. Enjoy the ski season through mid to late April and experience the unique perks of spring skiing. Spring offers warmer temperatures and more sunlight, so that you can enjoy more time on the slopes and softer snow. Enjoy discounted lift tickets at the end of the ski season!

Relax on Outdoor Patios

Soak up the warm spring weather at Vail’s restaurants featuring outdoor patios. Whether you are looking for an apres-ski spot near the slopes or a casual place to unwind after a hike, there is an option for everyone. Some of our favorites include Garfinkel’s in Lionshead Village or Alpenrose in Vail Village. 

Explore the Great Outdoors

By late spring, popular recreational activities begin to reopen. Dress in layers and start exploring lower-elevation hiking trails, such as the Gore Valley Trail or the Booth Falls Trail. Or go fly-fishing on Gore Creek. By May, summer activities like mountain biking, whitewater rafting, and golfing will be in full swing. 

Attend Spring Festivals 

Fun and exciting events are available in Vail year-round. The season kicks off with the annual Taste of Vail event, where you can sample world-class food and wine from local chefs and winemakers. By the end of May, the free summer concerts at Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater kick off. Check the event schedule and join the festivities during your spring vacation in Colorado.
