The mountain towns on Interval’s Top 20 list are all world-renowned skiing and snowboarding destinations. And for good reason: All regularly receive big-time winter snow and are home to large resorts with varied terrain that will keep every level of downhill enthusiast challenged and content, from gentle green and blue cruisers to steep and deep double-black-diamond trails. When the snow melts, an entirely different world of outdoor recreation is revealed. Hiking, biking, fishing, rafting, and … shopping at unique little small-town boutiques are perfect ways to spend warm days in and around charming mountain communities.
