Aspen Highlands has long been a favorite mountain among locals, and its two restaurants reflect the laid-back atmosphere of the valley.

Merry-Go-Round offers a sun-filled dining room and several hearty-yet-healthy options at its grab-and-go counters. Further up the mountain, Cloud Nine Alpine Bistro offers a slice of Switzerland in the Rocky Mountains, with fondue and raclette, views of the Maroon Bells, and a pop-the-bubbly après ski scene unmatched in North America.

Please note: Merry-Go-Round and Cloud Nine Alpine Bistro are closed for the season. We look forward to seeing you next winter!
