Winter Park is in the central Colorado mountains 68 miles northwest of Denver on Highway 40, with shuttle service from Denver International Airport. On weekends a ski train takes skiers from Denver to Winter Park through spectacular mountain scenery on a historic railroad. It is an easy drive by car from Denver.
Winter Park is a favorite with skiers in eastern Colorado.
It is easily accessible and offers some of Colorado's most reasonable rates for skiing, lodging and dining. It especially appeals to average-ability skiers who like cross country and jumping. Winter Park's three connected mountains offer ideal Alpine skiing, especially around Parsenn Bowl. The area's five-mile run is the longest in Colorado. Many people consider Winter Park's moguls among the best in the United States.
