Red hot and green February romantic getaways for Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Keystone and Heavenly

The Rocky Mountains and Sierra Nevada Mountains are the perfect backdrop for your Red Hot getaway. Ski resort vacations provide plenty of options for couples seeking adrenaline-pumping outdoor activities like expert skiing at Vail's Lover's Leap or ice skating hand-in-hand in a quaint alpine village. Then, warm things up and head indoors with a cup of hot cocoa while snuggling in front of the crackling fireplace.

This Valentine's Day celebrate a Red Hot and Green getaway at Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Keystone and Heavenly with eco-friendly activities like organic spa treatments, full moon snowshoe tours or cook up some Red Hot romantic ideas like a cooking class at Breckenridge or a gourmet sleigh-ride dinner at Beaver Creek.

Red hot eco-friendly activities:
