Colorado is known for its ski resorts, cities of Denver and Boulder, and beautiful mountain ranges, but there are also smaller gems you won’t want to miss when you’re in this state. Winter Park, Colorado is a charming town that is certainly worth visiting in its eponymous season and throughout the year!

For a winter vacation, enjoy skiing, snowshoeing, uphill skilling, ski biking, and tubing in the winter wonderland that comes around each year. If you're new to these exhilarating winter sports, you can take lessons and guided tours of the area and be ready to go in no time.

Prefer to stay cozy by the fire? Enjoy outdoor fire pits, warm up in charming restaurants, and enjoy delicious desserts in the village while you take in the snowy mountain views all around you. It's even possible to combine indoor comforts with outdoor adventure in a heated Snowcat ride through the Arapaho National Forest. You'll get the opportunity to see stunning views of Winter Park Resort, Fraser Valley, Vasquez Peak Wilderness, and the Continental Divide.
