Tour around the Maroon Bells
Circumnavigate the Maroon Bells

In this hearty mountain trek we'll circumnavigate the Maroon Bells - some of the most beautiful and extensively photographed peaks in North America. Our journey begins with a seven-mile hike over 12,462 ft. Buckskin Pass to Snowmass Lake, where we'll camp in a gorgeous alpine setting below the imposing 14,200 ft. Snowmass Mountain.

The next day, we'll traverse over Trailrider and Frigidair passes and meander through some of the most beautiful wildflowers in the state. We'll end the day in the mountain town of Crested Butte, where we'll stay in a quaint and comfortable lodge.

After an early breakfast the next morning, we'll return to Aspen via West Maroon Pass (12,550 ft.) enjoying stunning views of North and South Maroon Bells!
