Our favorite resource for finding local hiking trails! You can filter based on length/difficulty to find the perfect hike.
Dive bar feel but definitely a Vail Classic! Live music, with a stereotypical rowdy apres-ski scene. The perfect place to show Vail's diversity. Also, a great place to stop in after hiking! American bar/pub food - large nachos.
Winters' family favorite! We stop at Blue Moose every year for the best pizza in town.
Creative, modern American restaurant in the heart of Vail. Opened in 1977. This is one of our favorite restaurants in all of Vail. FYI - it is expensive. Sit at the bar and have a great glass of wine or specialty cocktail, fantastic seasonal appetizers and the Hot Sticky Toffee Pudding dessert which has been on their menu for over 20 years.
On Gore Creek (under Sweet Basil and sister restaurant) has more casual dishes and a great bar. If seated by the window you get a wonderful view of Gore Creek.
Old school Austrian restaurant. Fun bar with live music in the evenings. The french onion soup is a favorite!
One of our favorite apres-ski bars in Lionshead Village. Perfect for post ski/hike snacks and brews.
