Description: This group of Alpine Winter Shops is an important destination in Vail Village. Among the stores is the Skate and Ski Rentals store where everyone can get the equipment they need for fun on the slopes or the ice. There’s the muffin shop and hot cocoa stall for refreshments. And, for that all-important apres-ski session, the Schnapps & Strudel Saloon offers a warm and friendly welcome.
