How far is Dillon, Colorado from Denver airport?

About 100 miles, or roughly 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours west on I-70 in good conditions. Traffic on winter weekends can extend that considerably.

Do I need a 4WD or AWD car to get to Dillon in winter?

It is strongly recommended. Colorado enforces traction and chain laws on I-70 during winter storms, requiring all-wheel drive, four-wheel drive, or adequate snow tyres and tread depth. Check CDOT road conditions before travelling.

Can you get to Dillon without a car?

Yes — scheduled shuttles run from Denver International Airport to Summit County, and the free Summit Stage bus connects the towns and ski resorts once you are here. A car is still more convenient for day trips.
