Aspen Mountain & Historic Lift One

Location at the Base of Aspen Mountain

Chalet Alpina occupies one of Aspen's most coveted locations, at the base of Aspen Mountain in the historic Lift One corridor. Here, the mountain and downtown Aspen come together. The planned new Lift One high-speed Telemix, combining gondola cabins and chairlift seating, will run directly through the property, creating an extraordinary connection between residence, mountain, and town.

The Lift One Corridor

The Lift One Corridor is the historic heart of Aspen skiing — the original base area where chairlift-served skiing on Aspen Mountain began. After decades of planning, the corridor is now being transformed into a cohesive mountainside district that will include Chalet Alpina, Aman Aspen, the planned new Lift One high-speed Telemix gondola and chairlift, the Aspen Snowsports History Museum at Skiers Chalet, new public gathering spaces, and a new park.

Chalet Alpina sits at the center of this transformation, where Aspen's skiing heritage and its next chapter come together. Its location will place owners directly within the revitalized Lift One Corridor when the transformation is complete.

Ski-In/Ski-Out Access

Chalet Alpina is planned as a true ski-in/ski-out property. The planned new Lift One high-speed Telemix, combining gondola cabins and chairlift seating, will provide direct access to Aspen Mountain, with the lift alignment designed to run through the property. Owners will be able to ski back to the property and depart directly onto the mountain without a shuttle, road crossing, or walking in ski boots.

In Aspen, that distinction matters. When complete, Chalet Alpina's position directly along the planned Lift One alignment is designed to provide ski-in/ski-out access directly from the property.

Walking Distance to Town

Chalet Alpina is planned to combine direct mountain access with an easy walk into the heart of Aspen.

Restaurants, galleries, boutiques, and Aspen's cultural life are all within walking distance. Owners will be able to move between the property, the mountain, and downtown without depending on a car.

That connection between Aspen Mountain and downtown is an important part of the Lift One location.

Proximity to Aman Aspen

Aman Aspen is planned immediately adjacent to Chalet Alpina within the Lift One Corridor. The two developments will occupy neighboring sites at the base of Aspen Mountain.

Chalet Alpina and Aman Aspen are separate projects. Chalet Alpina is planned to include residential ownership, resort amenities, and a private members club, while Aman Aspen is planned as a hotel. Both are part of the broader redevelopment taking place around the planned new Lift One high-speed Telemix.

For a Chalet Alpina buyer, Aman Aspen is part of the larger context of what is being developed around the Lift One base — including new hospitality, residences, dining, mountain access, and connections to downtown Aspen.

The Aspen Market Context

New residential development in Aspen is constrained by limited land and development controls, making new inventory at the base of Aspen Mountain uncommon.

Chalet Alpina is planned at the base of Aspen Mountain with ski-in/ski-out access along the planned Lift One alignment and downtown Aspen within walking distance. The development is part of the broader transformation of the historic Lift One Corridor, which has been planned and discussed for many years.

Chalet Alpina plans 26 Shared-Ownership Resort Residences and 6 whole-ownership Mountain Homes. For a buyer considering the development, that limited number makes the differences among residence type, ownership structure, position, and view important to understand.
