📌Save these tips for visiting Maroon Bells in Aspen, CO🏔️

Maroon Bells is one of the most photographed spots in Colorado and is a popular destination to visit in summer and fall. 

Here are some tips to plan your visit:

‼️ Most options do require you to plan ahead as there are limits each day on parking and shuttle reservations

1. Parking permit- reserve online in advance, very limited and $10 per vehicle🚗

2. Shuttle reservations- reserve online ahead of time, cost is $16 round trip or can also pay just one way back. You can sometimes get lucky day of reservation for $20 but I wouldn’t plan on it 🚎 

3. Biking- this option is free (unless you rent an e-bike in town) and you do not need a reservation. On standard bikes it is uphill and 9 miles. Recommend going early, especially if you are also hiking within the area. 🚲
