Yes, Vail, Colorado, is known for its champagne powder and stellar slopes in the winter months, but I think it’s just divine in the summer — when the blue-sky, temperate climate is ideal for outdoor fun. I’ve actually spent more time in Vail this summer than Aspen, which is about 90 minutes closer to my mountain home (go figure), and I’ve enjoyed getting to know the resort and its pedestrian-friendly villages. Truly, there are some outstanding opportunities when it comes to hiking and biking, dining and people-watching in Vail in the summer. Plus, the town is running a Vail All the Love promotion, with more than 50 lodges and 50 local merchants offering discounts on restaurants, lodging and activities.

Take note that a couple options are available all year round; some are ideal for families and some are meant for grown-ups only.
