Aspen 
United States
Nestled among the majestic Elk Mountains, Aspen has the formula for the perfect winter trip. A place that combines top-notch skiing with multiple other snow activities, first-class hospitality, starred cuisine, cool galleries and stores, and an exciting nightlife – all permeated by a sophisticated atmosphere that attracts the global jet-setters. What is known as Aspen is, in fact, a set of four mountains that add up to no less than 360 runs. Connected by an efficient shuttle system that goes from one to the other in up to fifteen minutes, they offer different experiences that complement each other. Famous for its advanced runs and trendy mountain restaurants, Aspen Mountain is in the charming town of Aspen, which has historic architecture and flat, walkable streets. Neighboring Snowmass, with its variety of trails, it also has the region’s largest children’s entertainment center – the Treehouse Kids Adventure Center – and its own village centered around an ice skating rink. Among them are Aspen Highlands, home of the amazing Cloud 9 bistro, with tables that overlook the region’s peaks, and lastly, Buttermilk, which hosts the famous X Games and offers terrain parks and very fun slopes for snowboarders to practice their tricks. Besides skiing, the range of attractions at the resorts goes from yoga classes and roller coasters to cultural festivals throughout the season. It is no wonder that Aspen is one of the ski destinations that receives more Brazilian tourists in the word.
