Lift & TrailTrip list
Short answer, winter

At Aspen Mountain, we found at least 6 places to stay about a 5-minute walk or less from the bottom of a lift. The closest we found is The Little Nell, about 180 ft from Silver Queen gondola. For the 2026-27 season, opening day is set for Thursday, Nov 26 and the last day is planned for Apr 18, 2027.

Short answer, summer

In summer Aspen Mountain has Snowmaking Res. 1.5 miles from the main base.

Ski-in/ski-out or a short walk?

Among the places to stay we found at Aspen Mountain, 1 place to stay is within about 150 ft of a mapped ski run and 6 places to stay are about a 5-minute walk or less from the bottom of a lift. “Ski-in/ski-out” and “slopeside” are labels each property gives itself, and they can mean a run past the door or a groomed path to the nearest chair. We don't repeat the label; we measure the walk to a lift's bottom station and how close a mapped run passes. Before you book, ask the property which run reaches the door and whether it is groomed all season.

Which lift to stay near

What the words mean

Places to stay, closest first

Condo complexes and rental homes are often missing from the open data we measure, so the real number near the lifts is usually higher. The mountain's own lodging pages list them.

Good to know

How many places to stay are within walking distance of the lifts at Aspen Mountain?

We measured 27 places to stay around Aspen Mountain in open map data. 6 are about a 5-minute walk or less from the bottom of a lift, 14 within about 10 minutes and 24 within about 20. The rest are farther out.

Is there ski-in/ski-out lodging at Aspen Mountain?

We don't repeat the label, because each property sets its own. What we can measure: 1 place to stay is within about 150 ft of a mapped run among the places we found, for example them The Little Nell. Ask the property which run reaches its door and whether it is groomed all season.

Which lift has the most lodging close by?

Silver Queen gondola: 10 of the places to stay we list are within about 10 minutes on foot of its bottom station.

Is Aspen Mountain worth a summer trip?

The map shows Snowmaking Res. 1.5 miles from the main base. Lift-served biking and summer rides depend on the operator's season, so check its site for dates.

How high does Aspen Mountain go?

The highest point on our map is about 11,260 feet, and the lowest lift starts near 7,960 feet, a drop of about 3,300 feet. Elevations come from the map's terrain model, so treat them as close, not exact.

When does Aspen Mountain open for the 2026-27 season?

For the 2026-27 season, opening day is set for Thursday, Nov 26 and the last day is planned for Apr 18, 2027, as aspensnowmass.com put it when we checked on Nov 13, 2026. Openings slide with the snow, so check the mountain's own page close to your trip.

How do you work out the minutes?

Along a mapped walking route from each place to stay to the bottom station of the nearest chairlift, gondola or tram you can walk to, at an easy pace. Where the map has no route we give the distance as the crow flies instead of minutes. How we measure.
