About Winter Park
Winter Park Resort is the closest major ski resort to Denver, situated 67 miles west of the city in the Arapaho National Forest and operated for decades by the City of Denver — a municipal ownership that kept prices significantly below comparable Colorado resorts and built a loyal local following that persists today. Its 3,081 skiable acres across seven distinct territories include the celebrated Mary Jane terrain park system — named after the original 19th-century homesteader whose land claim the resort occupies — which offers sustained mogul fields, challenging glades, and consistent expert lines that have made it a favourite of Denver-area skiers for generations. The resort's proximity to a major international airport and its historically competitive pricing make it one of the most accessible gateway experiences into Colorado skiing, while its terrain variety — beginner areas on the Olympia trail network through to advanced steeps on Parsenn Bowl — ensures it rewards return visits.
