Wondering about how to get to Crested Butte and where to stay?
If I'm flying to Crested Butte, which airport should I travel to?
Part of Crested Butte's charm is its unspoiled character as a rural resort town in the Rocky Mountain West. Like other gems in the Rockies, it is off the beaten path, and at a distance from big cities. For this reason, traveling to Crested Butte takes more time, but is well worth the effort.
The closest airports to Crested Butte are Gunnison (GUC), which is 30 minutes away, and Montrose (MTJ), which is about 1 hour and 45 minutes away. Both airports typically require a connection through Denver (DEN), although Montrose airport does offer direct flights from Dallas (DFW) year-round.
Direct flights from several major airports (LAX, SFO, DFW, IAH, ORD) can be found to Aspen airport (ASE), Grand Junction (GJT), or Colorado Springs (COS), all of which require a scenic drive of approximately 3 hours to Crested Butte.
Once in Crested Butte, everything is in walking distance, or you can catch the free town bus which circulates between multiple stops around town and the resort area at Mt. Crested Butte. Because of this, some people opt not to rent a car and instead get an airport shuttle. Contact Alpine Express or Dolly's Mountain Shuttle for more information.
