About Aspen
Aspen is a former silver-mining town in the Colorado Rockies, now a famous ski and mountain resort with a Victorian core and the Maroon Bells nearby.
Aspen sits at about 2,400 metres in the Roaring Fork Valley, hemmed in by peaks. It began as a silver camp in the 1880s, and its brick Victorian centre survives, including the Wheeler Opera House of 1889. A modern town grew around the skiing that took hold in the mid-twentieth century, and four mountains, Aspen Mountain, Aspen Highlands, Buttermilk and Snowmass, surround it.
Top-ranked sights in Aspen: Aspen Mountain (Ajax), John Denver Sanctuary, Aspen Art Museum.
