Nestled against the Gore Range at the bottom of Vail Pass

East Vail is the eastern most point of our Vail Valley and the first town you see coming down Vail Pass, just as you catch those breathtaking views of the Vail Valley that make you feel like you’re driving into heaven. 

East Vail sits against the Gore Range in a true alpine setting.  Solely a residential neighborhood, it is popular with long time locals, second homeowners and investors taking advantage of the ideal rental location.  An hour and a half from Denver, Vail’s eastern most point is popular with front range skiers.

While skiing the East Vail chutes is for experts only, there are plenty of snowshoe trails amongst blanketed mature trees.  In the summer there are waterfall hikes, backcountry hikes into the Gore Range, road biking up the old Vail Pass road to Summit County, a paved path from East Vail to Minturn and boundless beauty that all make East Vail a favorite for any outdoor enthusiasts.  Nestled in the mountains, the days are a bit shorter and the winters last a bit longer; as they say here “when you live in East Vail, you live in the mountains”. 

Along with its breathtaking and peaceful beauty, one of East Vail’s best features is it’s location on the Town of Vail bus route.  From most anywhere in you can walk less than 5 minutes to catch the free bus into town.
