Summer is just around the corner and Camp Aspen Snowmass offers state-of-the-art licensed childcare facilities packed with fun and adventure for kids. What better way to spend summer days in the mountains than downhill biking, rock climbing, fishing, rafting, rocket building, mountainboarding, creating arts & crafts, camping, tackling a ropes course, or riding the Breathtaker Alpine Coaster? Age-appropriate adventures for kids 3 to teens are run by qualified educators and professional guides. Cubs Camp Childcare is geared for the little ones ages 1 to 3 (walking but not yet potty trained).

“Camp Aspen Snowmass is an incredible opportunity for kids and teens to get outside, get on the mountains and be part of a summer adventure that every kid dreams about,” said Sue Way, Director of Children’s Programs.

2. Multi-Day Specialty Camps

Kids with special interests or wish to explore something new can participate in multi-day camps. During the 2-day Downhill Biking Camp, they build new skills, learn bike safety, and do some distance riding. Real mountainboard Pro’s and talented camp coaches teach campers new skills in the 3-day Dirt Dawg Mountainboard Camp. Budding scientists design, build, and launch their own rocket in the 2- or 3-day Rocket Camp based out of the Treehouse Kids’ Adventure Center. Overnight Camping is a blast with a campfire, s’mores, songs, and stargazing. Kids spend the night at the private Snowmass campsite in a fun, supervised setting. Reservations are required for multi-day camps, so don’t delay!
