The Family Edit
Traveling with little ones doesn’t have to be complicated and Snowmass is one of the best family ski destinations in the Rockies. With wide, gentle slopes, kid-friendly ski school programs, and tons of off-mountain fun, it’s a place where children under 10 can have just as much fun as the grownups.
This 3-day itinerary is designed with families in mind, blending ski time with kid-approved meals, built-in breaks, and activities that make space for downtime. From easy breakfasts and hot chocolate stops to play zones, tubing, and cozy dinners, you’ll find plenty of ways to keep energy high and smiles even higher. Snowmass makes it easy for parents to relax, knowing everything you need for a smooth mountain trip is right here in the village.
Local Tip: Don’t miss Snowmass’ free après-ski s’mores. They’re offered in two locations: one in Base Village and another in the Mall. Use the Skittles (the colorful and slow gondola near the treehouse) to travel between the village and the mall and double dip for gooey marshmallow goodness every afternoon. Kids love the tradition, and parents don’t seem to mind it either.
