Directions, Parking, & Transportation
While Vail, Colorado is a mountain town located in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, getting here is surprisingly convenient! Whether you’re taking a flight or a road trip, the ease of traveling to Vail might keep you coming back year after year.
Vail is located along Interstate 70, which runs west / east through Colorado. There are two main areas in Vail: Vail Village and Lionshead Village, where Montaneros is located. The two villages are just a ten-minute walk from each other, and there is a free shuttle that runs between the two as well. If you will have a car, there are parking garages in both Lionshead and Vail Village as well. Montaneros offers complimentary parking for one vehicle per condo.
Getting to Vail By Plane
Vail is serviced by two airports. Eagle Regional Airport is located 30 miles west of Vail (around a 40-minute drive). Denver International Airport (DIA) is located 120 miles east of Vail (around a two-hour drive). Both airports offer direct flights from major cities and other regional airports. Flight schedules change seasonally, as summer and winter are busier than the spring and fall.
To get from either airport to Montaneros in Vail, you can either rent a car or take a shuttle. For airport shuttle services, we recommend the High Mountain Taxi (to/from Eagle) and the Epic Mountain Express (to/from DIA). If you are flying into Eagle, you can also take the local ECO Transit bus.
