After heading out of Minturn, riders will quickly reach the town of Avon. Avon is the last town riders will tackle before the final climb to the finish in Beaver Creek.
Known as the “Heart of the Vail Valley” for its geographic location as well as its strong sense of community and family-friendly atmosphere, Avon is a great place for both residents and visitors. The town serves as a gateway to the world-class Beaver Creek Resort and is eight miles west of world-famous Vail. Avon also offers a multitude of recreational opportunities, special events, parks, open space and trails, and a mix of local and national shops and restaurants.
