24/7 Emergency Service

Aspen Ambulance is an integral part of the Aspen Valley Hospital Network of Care. Our 24-hour Emergency Medical Services (EMS) extend from Aspen’s community center to the area’s famous rivers, mountain peaks, hiking trails and legendary slopes.

Aspen Ambulance specializes in critical care emergency response, swift water rescue and high angle (rope) rescue, providing pre-hospital emergency medical services and inter-facility transfers at an exceptionally high level of care that meets the demands of our rugged terrain and the residents and visitors who live, work and play in the greater Aspen area. We go beyond traditional emergency response in our commitment to keeping our community safe, also focusing on prevention, education, emergency management and medical support for special events such as the Winter XGames and the Aspen Backcountry Marathon.
