Things To Do

The Wedding Website of Jackie Nolan and Wilson Derleth
Vail is made up of three small villages: Golden peak to the East, Vail Village in the middle, and Lionshead to the West. They are all within easy walking distance of each other, with paved pathways between each. You can also take a free shuttle that travels all day between the three villages. Golden Peak is mainly residential and hotels, while Vail Village and Lionshead is full of restaurants, bars, and shops. Vail is gorgeous in the summer! There are so many activities, from hiking, kayaking, rafting, shopping, relaxing...you won't want to leave! Below are some of our favorite activities that are easy to get to!
