Itinerary
Denver
The adventure starts in the mile high city of Denver, and after a restful and acclimatising night at Four Seasons Hotel, collect your Jeep and drive over Independence Pass towards Smith Fork Ranch, at 3725 meters this drive is a glorious introduction to the American Rocky Mountains.
Accommodation: Four Seasons Hotel Denver ( 1 night )
Crawford, Colorado
Stay for 6 nights at Smith Fork Ranch set amid striking mountains and the Gunnison National Forest; Smith Fork is a dude ranch for active families that still like to be pampered. With a genuinely Western spirit, it's a place for teenagers to disconnect from high-speed life and have a real taste of adventure. They can chose to spend days enjoying their favourite sports, or learning new ones.
From horse-riding and rodeo arena lessons, fly-fishing, biking, archery, shooting sporting clays and cooking classes to hanging out on the pontoon at the swimming pond, there's something to capture every imagination and all are included in the price of your stay. Families can try new activities together or go their separate ways with private guides, and then reconnect in the evening for star-gazing, roasting marshmallow s'mores around the camp fire and the freshest farm-to-table cuisine. Parents will enjoy the Wine Spectator awarded private cellar.
Accommodation: Smith Fork Ranch ( 6 nights )
Los Angeles
Finish with a short flight from Aspen into Los Angeles. We have included admission to Universal Studios for you as it really is a must do, but there are so many other activities to choose from. From star-spotting on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, cheering on the Dodgers at the ballpark, pop concerts at the Staples Center to learning to surf off Santa Monica Pier, this holiday will provide teens with some serious back-to-school bragging rights and indelible family memories together.
Accommodation: Pendry West Hollywood ( 4 nights )
