The Maroon Bells is a must-visit. Why? With breathtaking views, and over 300 million years of jagged stone development, this natural wonder never ceases to amaze. The series of peaks measure over 14,000 feet above the Maroon creek valley. The mountains kiss the sun during the day, and cradle the moon at night. The “Bells” as most call it, is a wildly popular in-season destination, so we recommend making reservations in advance. There are many ways to take in the sites, sounds and beauty of the Bells. Let us help guide you there…

The First Step in Visiting the “Bells”?

From May to October, the Maroon Bells are open for visitation. Online reservations are a must, so best to make these in advance. 

How to Reserve Your Spot?

A reservation will solidify your trip via private vehicle or RFTA shuttle transportation. Aspen Luxury Concierge is happy to take care of these reservations. Should you, or your group, need to access them independently, this can be done via phone or email. If you are feeling athletic and adventurous, take in the sites via bike. If you don’t own your own bike, Aspen Luxury Concierge will be more than happy to secure a bike rental for the excursion. 

What to Bring?

Aspen Luxury Concierge will see that you are all set and nourished for this day, or night, trek. Varying from activity to activity, you can camp, hike, bike ride or simply walk around. Make sure to wear SPF, bring a water bottle and a small snack if needed. We can oversee a picnic lunch that is packed and ready for you to enjoy amongst the sweeping views. 

Pertinent Information:

Private vehicles are eligible for drop off between 6 AM to 8 AM without a reservation. If any passenger is dropped off they must have a shuttle ticket to return to Aspen Highlands. Maroon Bells is accessible 24 hours a day with the proper permitting.
