For air travel, the best way to get to Snowmass is to fly into Aspen/Pitkin County Airport (ASE), which will put you 6.5 miles from Snowmass Village. Snowmass is also accessible via two driving direction options. While the majority of people traveling from DIA will take I-70 West, in the summer Independence Pass provides a more scenic route into Snowmass. Independence Pass is generally open from Memorial Day until late October or early November depending on weather and road conditions.
