On the drive there, you will pass through the stunning Glenwood Canyon. You must make reservations, but there is a fun scenic hike to Hanging Lake in the canyon.

Parking advice in Vail
In the summer, park for free in the Vail Village and Lionshead parking structures. Avoid the pricey Solaris parking; they try to track you to park there. In the winter, parking is paid, a little more tricky and fills up early. As an alternative, park on the north frontage road across from the Vail City Market/Safeway and take the free Vail bus from the sheltered bus stop into Vail Village.
