5 Spectacular Things to Do in Aspen That Have Nothing to Do With Skiing

Be sure to wear close-toed, comfortable shoes for hiking, as the terrain is rocky and can be wet and muddy. Depending on your preference, you can choose the Maroon Bells Scenic Trail for an easy, 1.3-mile walk, or take the Crater Lake Trail for a slightly more rigorous, 1.8-mile hike each way. You'll have plenty of photo opportunities along the way, surrounded by the lush green trees and the flowing river.
