Frisco is located in the heart of the Colorado Rockies just 95 miles from Denver International Airport. It is a quintessential mountain town with six world class ski resorts within minutes of its charming Main Street. Frisco is also an exceedingly walkable and bikeable town with great free public transportation, making it very doable to leave your car at home or parked during your visit.

Frisco is a hub for public transportation in Summit County, and encourages the use of multi-modal transportation to get to and around Town. Please visit GoI70.com for more information on public transportation, carpooling, and parking options along the I-70 Corridor.

Travel Advice

Spend More Time in Frisco and Less Time On I-70

I-70 is the primary route to Frisco. I-70 is congestion-free the majority of the time and with just a little bit of planning you can have “More Mountains and Less Traffic”. Learn the best times to travel, access real-time road & traffic resources, get great Sunday deals and more by visiting GoI70’s website.

Mountain Express Lane

An eastbound toll lane runs between Empire and Idaho Springs and operates during peak travel times. Before using this lane keep in mind that the amount of traffic determines pricing, ensuring the lane is always moving reliably.  If you don’t have an express toll pass, you will be billed through a license plate toll at a higher rate.
