Home to some of the country’s best skiing in the winter, and hiking in the summer, Aspen is the perfect destination for an adventurous bachelorette party. In the colder months, have a leisurely day on the slopes, or perhaps a spa day at Hotel Jerome. Then, come late afternoon, it’s time for après ski. Try to snag a 2:30 seating at Cloud Nine Alpine Bistro (open December through April), located slopeside on Aspen Highlands mountain. Trust us, it turns into quite the rowdy champagne-spraying party as the afternoon goes on. (Don’t worry, snowcats are available to those who maybe had a little too much fun at lunch.) Another fantastic option? The Snow Lodge, the snowy sister club to Montauk’s The Surf Lodge. In partnership with local music venue Belly Up, they bring the hottest musical acts to the base of Ajax Mountain during winter weekends. Last year, they also teamed up with one of the official best bars in the world, Dante, for their cozy, Bob Melet-designed restaurant. And don’t forget the Little Nell, the most famous post-ski spot in town. Want to go late into the night? Get a table at The Sterling, Aspen’s main nightclub…or catch a concert at Belly Up.
Summertime may not have après options, but is still buzzing: go to the annual Aspen Food & Wine Classic, which brings together the top chefs and wineries in the country. —Elise Taylor
