"Had a wonderful day snowshoeing on the Saturday guided hike up top Keystone on the Upper Windows trail w Randy as our guide. He was a true gentleman for our group of 4 ladies and very knowledgeable about the area, Local flora, and history of Keystone. It was a gorgeous sunny bluebird of a day and the views were spectacular. Highly recommend."

"We took a 1.5 hour cross country lesson. Claire was great. XC Skiing is so much cheaper and accessible than regular skiing! I called two days ahead of time to book our lesson. No crowds and lots of available parking: easy. We will definitely come back if we are in the area again. We also experienced the tubing hill with the kids. It was $20 a person per hour. I’m not sure how much more exiting the $45-50 big tubing..."

"We rented tubes for tubing with the family. $16 per tube per hour. There isn't a lift to take you back up to the top once you sled down. So, if your are a Dad (pack mule) like me, know you will be carrying everything up hill at altitude. Kids loved it and I was a champion at the end of the day. The staff was friendly, and there is a changing area."

"Review for the Keystone Nordic Center The Keystone Nordic Center is truly a gem! Everyone working here is super friendly and clearly passionate about what they do. Their enthusiasm creates such a positive and welcoming environment. We had the pleasure of taking lessons with Jana, and she was absolutely fantastic! Funny, patient, and incredibly talented, Jana made learning both fun and effective. She taught us so well that we were confidently skiing for the very first time without any issues...."

"Informative tours available and on your own trail maps for snowshoeing & cross country skiing. Family style snow tubing on a small hill I.e. You do all the work fun. Incredible vistas peak through several spots on the trails. Don't go off the trail if there has been heavy snow - you might sink to your waist."

"An extremely fun experience with some of the most friendliest and helpful people we have met. Large discounts if you are staying at a Keystone hotel/lodge and/or attending a Keystone conference. Very strongly recommend. They have a wonderful cross-country ski track (various levels and nice elevation changes), ski gear for various levels, lessons, gondola rides, snow shoeing etc. I got to cross country ski for just $20 including the ski rentals. The center is run by a former Olympian who..."
