Aspen Airport Mini Guide
There are two ways to get to Aspen, one is to fly into
Denver and hire a car for the drive to Aspen. The other is dependent on a connecting flight but allows you to fly directly into Aspen Pitkin County Airport, four miles from the resort, from which you can continue your journey into Aspen. You will be able to collect a hire car from the airport after completing the final documentation at the rental company’s desk.
Aspen Airport (airport code ASE) is the main airport to serve this city in
Colorado. Aspen originally started life as a mining town following a great boom for silver, but it is now a major tourist destination. Located high in the Rocky Mountains it is a picture-perfect place to visit and with a car you can negotiate the steep roads easily.
Also consider renting our low-cost snow chains and winter tyres for optimum traction on the roads. Flying into Aspen Airport and collecting a rental car you can be at the central business district within minutes. Be sure to read our comprehensive guide to driving in the USA if you plan to
hire a car in United States of America for the first time.
