Keystone Ski Resort is located in Summit County, Colorado, around 90 miles (144 km) from Denver International Airport and is an ideal resort choice for families looking for that epic mountain experience.
With over 3,000 acres of skiable terrain from gentle beginner slopes up to expert terrain across three peaks and an in-bounds cat-skiing operation, five above tree-line bowls combined with rocking night skiing, there is truly something at Keystone for the whole family.
Family Friendly
Families arriving into Keystone are greeted with free designated family parking and complimentary red wagons to transport the little ones back and forth to the slopes.
On the hill, kids will revel in the world’s largest snow fort and the daily free Kidtopia programs will keep the kids entertained and coming back for more.
Plus, when you factor into the budget that kids 12 and younger ski free with two or more days of booked lodging through the resort, it’s easy to see why Keystone is so popular with families.
