About Winter Park, CO

Winter Park enjoys an immense variety of terrain over what is defined as their Seven Territories. From the smooth cruisers of Winter Park to the infamous bumps and steeps of Mary Jane and breathtaking, above-it-all Parsenn Bowl, you will be spoilt for choice. Some ‘must do’ experiences across the Seven Territories include the Cirque Sled to access un-groomed backcountry terrain, following the kids through the Ash Cat terrain park or perhaps drinking a Mary Jane Ale at Lunch Rock is more your style. The possibilities are endless! The resort village is compact, with accommodation right by the lifts or just steps away. There are a good number of restaurants at the resort and Winter Park town is located only five kilometres down the road, easily accessible by a town shuttle bus. This is where the locals and visitors alike gather for après ski fun and plenty more dining.
