00:00Everyone thinks winter is the best time to come to Vail, but they're wrong.
00:04Fall is when Vail truly shines.
00:05The mountains glow with wildflowers in early September and golden aspens from mid-September to early October.
00:10The air is crisp and hiking and paved trails feel wide open.
00:14Oktoberfest celebrations bring steinz of beer, Leverian decor, and polka music that fill the village with energy.
00:20The autumn weather in Vail is perfect for getting outside without the summer heat or winter chill.
00:24Beyond hiking, fall offers plenty of activities.
00:27Riding the alpine coaster, taking the gondola up for lunch with sweeping views, and enjoying happy hour with goats.
00:33Yes, real goats. All create unforgettable memories.
00:36The charm continues in Lion's Head and Vail Village where chalet-style architecture and cobblestone streets create the feel of a European mountain town.
00:43The dining scene is just as impressive with many local spots offering plenty of space since you don't have the peak winter crowds.
00:49With perfect autumn weather, no long gondola lines, wide open hiking trails, a quiet village free of crowds, and Oktoberfest celebrations,
00:57fall truly feels like Vail's best-kept secret, the season locals almost don't want you to know about.
