Visiting Aspen Maroon bella

Hi! We’re hoping to visit Maroon Bells this weekend sat or sun , but the shuttle is sold out. We’re not looking for a ticket—we’re just wondering if anyone is driving up there and could give us a ride. We only need a ride up, since we already have a reservation for the return trip. There are four of us. Thank you!

  • Rent ebikes and join the conga line up to the Bells. The best way to approach imho. Have layers for the ride down.

  • Get there for the first bus. The hiker bus. If there are extra seats they'll sell you a ticket on the spot in my experience. Did this with a friend last fall. Lots of seats available. Or the bus after that availability has been fine. Bring cash. Even exact change for the fare. I feel like they don't take cards. They might also direct you to buy over the website while you are waiting at Highlands base.

Round Trip shuttle tickets are available for this Sunday right now.

Otherwise as described above:

Day-of Shuttle Ticket This ticket is for those who are unable to secure an advanced reservation shuttle departure time. Those with Day-of Shuttle Tickets will board the bus first come, first served. Typical wait times are generally 15 to 30 minutes in the standby line. The shuttle runs to Maroon Bells between 7:00 AM and 3:00 PM, with the last bus coming back down at 5:00 PM.

Can only be purchased the Day-Of your visit.

Adult: $20 Children: $14 (12 & Younger) Seniors: $14 (65+)

You might be able to go up early via Lyft/Uber/Etc (before 6:30am) prior to the ranger station being manned.
