About Winter Park Resort
The Winter Park Resort ski area is located just under 70 km as the crow flies west of Denver in the Rocky Mountains. This diverse winter sports area encompasses seven different sectors for skiing at elevations from 2,743m to 3,676m, offering 143 km of slopes served by 25 lifts, with the season extending to late April.
Skiing Winter Park
Denver's mountain — accessible by the Winter Park Express ski train from Union Station. The front side is family-friendly groomed terrain; Mary Jane is the mogul capital of Colorado.
Terrain by Level
Beginners: Discovery Park on the Winter Park side has gentle terrain, dedicated lifts, and a progression path that avoids the main mountain.
Intermediates: Parsenn Bowl above the tree line offers open-bowl skiing accessible to strong intermediates — a rare above-treeline experience at this difficulty level.
Advanced: Mary Jane is mogul heaven. Drunken Frenchman, Trestle, and Brakeman are sustained bump runs. Vasquez Cirque adds hike-to chutes. Find an instructor at Winter Park →
Choosing a Ski School
- Mary Jane mogul clinics: No better classroom for bumps in Colorado.
- Adaptive programmes: The National Sports Centre for the Disabled — one of the world's leading adaptive ski programmes.
Insider Tips
- The Winter Park Express ski train runs select weekends from Denver Union Station directly to the base. No driving, no traffic.
- Winter Park is on the Ikon Pass and more affordable than the I-70 resorts.
- The drive from Denver crosses Berthoud Pass — scenic but check CDOT conditions in storms.
