skiiThere are countless beautiful ski destinations in the world. Some of them are unexplored and only a few skiers are able to take advantage of their wonders. But by and large, certain destinations are at the top of the mind of every skier when thinking of skiing. This is because these locales are among the best in the world. Below are the top 3 ski resorts you should visit in your lifetime:

Aspen, Colorado

Aspen is, of course, a very popular skiing location for the rich, famous, and talented. It is noted particularly for its four mountains and steep slopes for advanced skiers. The ski resorts located within the area feature excellent views of the mountains. In addition, the terrain can accommodate skiers of all ability levels so no one will feel left out. However, the main disadvantage of Aspen is that it tends to be expensive because most of its tourists are “well-off”.

Cortina, Italy

Ever since it hosted the Olympic Games in 1956, the popularity of Cortina has been unstoppable. Life in Cortina is very charming, and it revolves around its beautiful environment. Cortina’s resorts can match the very best in the world. Aside from its natural wonders, this locale is also home to some of the most stylish Italians.

Stowe, Vermont

Stowe is one of the most picturesque resorts in the world. It has the traditional small town charm while having modern conveniences. Set against the biggest vertical backdrop in the vicinity, Spruce Park and Mount Mansfield are easily two of the favorite ski resorts among travelers. There is a also a lift-link that connects one resort to the other.
