About the Area


Ski Broadmoor is not a real ski resort in Colorado. The Broadmoor is a luxury resort located in Colorado Springs, but it does not have a ski resort associated with it. It is known for its beautiful grounds, golf courses, and spa facilities, rather than skiing.

The best trails are generally considered to be the intermediate and advanced options, with some challenging terrain available for experienced skiers. A little-known fact is that the resort was originally opened in 1936 by Spencer Penrose, a wealthy businessman and philanthropist who also founded the nearby Broadmoor Hotel.

As for après ski, the Golden Bee is a popular spot located in the nearby Broadmoor Hotel, known for its lively atmosphere and famous "Beehive" pub sing-alongs.
