Aspen is a culturally rich, freewheeling, tolerant town that is is predominantly known as one of the ski travel destinations in the world. Local annual events include Winterskol, Aspen's Winter Carnival, the Aspen Music festival, with concerts and recitals by world-class artists, also the International Design Conference and a Food and Wine Festival. Wheeler Opera House, carefully restored in every detail to its 1889 grandeur, is the site of operas, dramas, concerts and films throughout the year. Aspen's location on the eastern part of White River National Forest in the midst of the beautiful Elk Mountains, in the Rocky Mountain Range, makes it the perfect choice for year-round outdoor activities.
