I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!
As if Arizona couldn’t get any more exciting with all there is to do, there’s something new being built at one of our ski resorts. Located in Greer is Sunrise Park Resort which offers a whole lotta year-round fun. And it’s about to get even more fun with the addition of a new year-round mountain coaster. Coming in 2024, you’ll have even more incentive to visit this ski and summer resort in Arizona.
Sunrise Park Resort is one of the top ski resorts in Arizona. Ripe with adventure, it offers skiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, snow tubing, and ski bikes.
Not only is this an epic spot for a getaway during the winter but during other times of the year as well. In fact, it's an excellent destination that offers activities year-round.
There are also scenic lift rides, ziplining, an airbag jump, a tubing hill, a rock climbing wall, 3D archery, and disco golf. But something new is coming that will add even more fun to this already-fun resort...
To add to the adventure, the resort is adding a mountain coaster. The Sunrise Apache Alpine Coaster will have 3,287 feet of track and reach a top speed of 25 mph and will offer an exhilarating downhill ride.
While the Sunrise Apache Alpine Coaster is not completed yet, it's slated to open by Memorial Day Weekend in 2024.
