Vail transforms into an alpine playground each summer, offering endless opportunities for adventure and relaxation. Hike or bike miles of scenic mountain trails, stroll through the charming European-inspired Vail Village, ride the Eagle Bahn Gondola for panoramic views, and enjoy world-class dining, shopping, and outdoor concerts. Fly fish pristine rivers, explore wildflower-filled meadows, or simply unwind beside Gore Creek. With cool mountain temperatures, breathtaking scenery, and activities for every age, Vail is one of Colorado's premier summer destinations.

Nestled at the foot of the dramatic Gore Range, Piney River Ranch is one of Colorado's most iconic mountain destinations. After a scenic drive along historic Red Sandstone Road, you'll arrive at the crystal-clear waters of Piney Lake, surrounded by towering 13,000-foot peaks. Spend time hiking around the lake, paddling across the clear blue mountain water, enjoying lunch at the rustic lodge, or simply soaking in one of the most photographed views in the Vail Valley. It's the perfect escape for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone looking to experience the Colorado Rockies at their finest.
