5 Thanksgiving Activities for the Whole Family at Keystone

When spending time with family, it can often be hard to find something that everyone enjoys, but Keystone is one of the most family oriented resorts around and has some fun winter activities that everyone will love! Here are a few of our top picks to keep any family busy during this holiday week.

Top 5 Thanksgiving HOLIDAY Activities for Whole Family

1. Early Morning Powder Skiing

Get up, get out early and make the most of the amazing early season snow here we get at Keystone Resort. Be sure to warm up with a hot chocolate (or hot toddy) at LaBonte's Cabin or Summit House on Dercum Mountain. 

2. Scenic Gondola Ride for the Whole Family

The gondola in Keystone features a scenic ride up to 11,640 feet, where the you'll experience amazing views of Lake Dillon, the 10-mile range, and even Breckenridge Ski Resort. This is a great option for families with kids too young to get out on the mountain or anyone not interested in strapping on a pair of skis. At the top grab lunch and hot chocolate at the Summit House or enjoy a beer in an Adirondack chair. 


3. Sleigh Rides Under the Stars

Nothing is more magical than a sleigh ride under the stars as the snow falls.  Two Below Zero offers both sleigh ride dinners with live entertainment, or a shorter scenic hot cocoa ride.  The perfect family activity for everyone to enjoy over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. 


4. Holiday Shopping 

Stroll River Run Village for a variety of shops with Colorado souvenirs, clothing and more. Or, head to the Silverthorne Outlets for Black Friday Deals and more holiday shopping fun! 

5. Attend the Welcome Winter Family Carnival

Attend the annual Welcome Winter Family Carnival in River Run Village. Listen and join in with the carolers, visit with Santa and sip hot cocoa as you enjoy the annual lighting of the holiday tree in the center of the main Keystone Village.  Inside at Warren Station, warm up with cocktails and live music, while the kids take part in fun crafts and holiday cocoa! 

Keystone is a wonderful place to celebrate the holiday season with your loved ones.  Book a vacation condo today and start planning your family vacation at Keystone.
