Top Dining Experiences at Aspen Highlands

1. Live It Up at Cloud Nine – Aspen Highlands is adored by locals because of its in-bounds skiing feels distinctly out-of-bounds. A similar thing could be said for the dining experience Cloud Nine Alpine Bistro — Alpine-style with a distinctly Rocky Mountain feel. In the Alps, a day of skiing isn’t complete without a long, cozy midday meal. Here, skiers can indulge in the most essential of European Alpine traditions, fondue, with views of two mountains nearly as iconic as the Matterhorn — the Maroon Bells.
2. Order. Nosh. Ski. Repeat. – That’s the cycle of fun at Merry-Go-Round, Aspen Highlands mid-mountain eatery where the organic coffee is always hot, and the vegetarian and hearty-yet-healthy options are plentiful.

• Cloud Nine Alpine Bistro
