Ideal time to visit Aspen 

Aspen has two peak tourist seasons which are winter and summer. Winter is the busiest and priciest time of the year which attracts visitors eager to ski, snowboard, snowshoe or enjoy snowmobile rides. After a day on the slopes, many relax with ski beverages in comfortable places like in warm tubs or in front of the fire. During the summer the city thrives once more, welcoming guests with warm weather and sunshine. There are many popular activities which take place during this time which includes hiking, mountain biking, road cycling and fly fishing. The town also hosts an impressive lineup of arts and cultural events. While summer is slightly more affordable than winter where prices remain relatively high. For travelers on a budget trip should consider spring because it is the ideal time to visit and book flights to Aspen. After ski season ends the town quiets down significantly. Though melting snow can make trails muddy and spring snow showers are still possible but it is a peaceful time to explore the outdoors. Be aware that some shops, restaurants and hotels may close briefly during the off season.
