Send to a Friend Bookmark It Review It Ask a Question

You love snow. You love playing in the snow. Then Winter Park Resort is the place you're going to love. We have the deepest, most consistent snow in Colorado. More that 351 inches of that fluffy white stuff blanketed the slopes last year. A fact backed by the National Weather Service as well as three generations of Colorado Skiers.

However, just because you can count on good snow doesn't mean you should expect to ski in blizzard conditions. On average, Winter Park has 106 days of sunshine during the ski season -- or approximately 70 percent of the season is sunny.

Here you'll find 2,770 acres of shrouded bliss. Everything from family-friendly terrain to experts only stuff. Ski it. Ride it. Stare in wide-eyed wonder at it. Never has a place transported you so far, yet been so close. Just 67 miles from Denver.

Toss in two authentic Colorado towns, Fraser and Winter Park, and you see why people keep coming back for more. It's like they took everything right about Colorado and put it all in one spot just for you. Was that considerate or what?

We all may have the same love for snow. But that doesn't mean we all play in it the same way. This is where Winter Park takes a giant step ahead of the Colorado ski resort pack. Winter Park Resort is made up by five interconnected mountains, Winter Park, Mary Jane, Parsenn Bowl, Vasquez Cirque and Vasquez Ridge and three terrain Parks.
