“Like Nothing on Earth”
Vail Mountain and the surrounding Town of Vail have stepped up in a big way to partner with Interski and PSIA-AASI to welcome the world to Colorado. This world-class destination is a place every passionate skier or rider should visit at least once. You will experience unparalleled terrain, scenery, hospitality, and history.
Vail Mountain is Colorado’s largest ski resort and the second largest single-mountain ski area in North America. The mountain offers more than 5,300 acres of developed ski and snowboard terrain, including seven back bowls, and enjoys 300 or more days of sunshine every year.
The year-round alpine destination delivers a superior, seamless experience for every guest, from the vast terrain and natural grandeur of the surrounding Gore and Sawatch Ranges to world-class events, shops and spas, and the abundant culinary options and luxurious accommodations that line the pedestrian-friendly streets of Vail and Lionshead Villages.
Coupled with the enduring spirit of innovation inherent in Vail’s founders, and a timeless pursuit of excellence in all aspects of guest service and operations, Vail is like nothing on earth.
