Flying into Beaver Creek: DEN or EGE?
Beaver Creek sits at 8,100 feet, 133 road miles west of Denver International and 29 miles from Eagle County Regional. The airport you book decides most of your travel day, so it is worth deciding before you buy the flight.
What the DEN drive actually takes
| Weekday, clear roads | 2 to 2.5 hours |
|---|---|
| Saturday morning westbound | Add 45 to 90 minutes. Every ski passholder in Denver is on I-70 with you. |
| Sunday afternoon eastbound | Add 1 to 2 hours at the Eisenhower Tunnel. We leave earlier rather than sit in it. |
| Active storm or Traction Law | Add 2 hours. Chains, reduced speed limits, and occasional full closure at Vail Pass. |
| Summer and fall | 2 hours, reliably. Construction is the only variable. |
Where we actually drop you
Beaver Creek Village is a pedestrian village behind a gated checkpoint on Village Road, above Avon. Vehicles clear the gate and drop at the Village Hall transportation center or directly at your lodge entrance. Bachelor Gulch and Arrowhead are separate portals with their own access roads, not walkable from the village, so tell dispatch which one you are staying in when you book. If your lodging is in Avon at the base, you are below the gate and the drop is straightforward.
Beaver Creek Transportation FAQs
How far is Beaver Creek from Denver?
Beaver Creek is approximately 110 miles from downtown Denver, about a 2-hour drive in clear conditions. From Denver International Airport it is 133 road miles, about 2 to 2.5 hours.
Can you drop off directly at the resort?
Yes. We can drop you at the Beaver Creek Village transportation center or your specific lodge or hotel.
Is it safe to drive into the mountains in winter?
With the right vehicle and a trained chauffeur, yes. Colorado's Traction Law (Code 15) on I-70 requires AWD/4WD or snow-rated tires with adequate tread; Arion vehicles meet or exceed it, carry chains, and our chauffeurs are ice-driving trained and monitor CDOT conditions before and during every mountain run.
What happens if I-70 closes or chain law is in effect?
Dispatch monitors CDOT closures and traction/chain restrictions in real time and will reroute (US-285, US-40, I-70 timing changes) or reschedule your pickup window. We tell you early rather than leaving you guessing at the airport.
How much extra time should I plan for ski-day traffic?
Plan an extra 60–90 minutes for Friday and Saturday westbound mornings and Sunday afternoon eastbound returns, and more around holiday weekends and storm cycles. We shift departure times to travel ahead of the peak rather than sitting in it.
Which vehicle is best for a ski trip?
Two to four travelers with ski bags fit an Executive or Luxury SUV. Five to seven with full gear should book a Luxury Coach Van so equipment is not on your lap. Large groups and race families can run multiple vehicles on one coordinated dispatch.
Can Arion carry skis, snowboards, and oversized gear?
Yes, at no extra charge. Tell us the count of ski or board bags, boot bags, and suitcases when booking so the right vehicle is assigned. Bikes, golf clubs, hunting cases, and instruments are also fine with advance notice.
Do you offer resort, condo, and door-to-door mountain drop-offs?
Yes — private transfers go directly to your lodge, condo, rental, or slopeside hotel entrance with no shared stops, plus in-town resort shuttling and on-mountain moves during your stay.
What winter equipment do your vehicles carry?
In winter every vehicle runs state-approved winter tires and four-wheel drive. Colorado's Traction Law does not require chains on a 4WD vehicle; our two-wheel-drive vans and buses carry and use the safety equipment the state requires. We also ask our chauffeurs to keep an avalanche preparation kit in the vehicle: flares, roadside triangles, solar blankets, water and snacks. An avalanche beacon is strongly recommended.
How much luggage fits?
We plan for five large suitcases in an SUV, plus a carry-on such as a backpack or purse for each passenger. Our vans hold up to eighteen suitcases. On buses, plan for one suitcase and one carry-on per passenger. Oversized items ride on top of the vehicle, and we can make special arrangements for oversized equipment if you tell us beforehand. We try hard never to have anyone sitting on their luggage, because these are not short trips.
Does Arion offer private car service to Beaver Creek?
Yes. Arion runs private, non-shared transfers to Beaver Creek from Denver International (133 miles, about 2 to 2.5 hours) and Eagle County Regional (29 miles, about 30 minutes). Every transfer is door to door on your own schedule, in an AWD or 4WD vehicle with a chauffeur trained for ice and mountain passes. Arion holds Colorado PUC certificate LL-04689 and carries $1.5M commercial auto and $5M general liability.
Is a car service or a shared shuttle better for Beaver Creek?
A shared shuttle is cheaper per seat and runs on a fixed schedule with multiple stops, which can add an hour or more to a mountain transfer. A private car leaves when your flight actually lands, goes straight to your lodge, and holds your reservation if the flight is delayed. For two or more travelers with ski bags the gap in total cost narrows quickly.

Can Arion carry ski and snowboard bags to Beaver Creek?
Yes. An Executive SUV carries 8 bags, a Luxury Coach Van 14, and a sedan 3. Ski and snowboard bags count toward those totals and are the reason most ski parties size up one vehicle. Tell dispatch your hard-case and soft-bag count at booking and you will be matched to a vehicle that fits it without a roof box.
