Maroon Bells Hike

Maroon Bells
Maroon-Snowmass Trail, Aspen, CO 81611

The iconic Maroon Bells are one of the most photographed mountains in North America. We will be finishing our wedding hike at this trailhead around 2-3 pm, and we highly recommend a visit during the day for scenic views, hikes with varying difficulties, and a beautiful introduction to our Aspen weekend. The shuttle to/from the Maroon Bells originates at Highlands Mountain Resort, which is conveniently the location of the celebratory drinks following our wedding hike. Note: you will need a shuttle reservation to get to/from the Maroon Bells trailhead (departing from Aspen Highlands Mountain Resort). The shuttle reservation system will open Tuesday February 18, 2025 at 8 am MT for summer visitors. https://www.visitmaroonbells.com/
