If you are staying at the resort there are lots of restaurants, shopping and activities you can walk to. Highlights include the alpine slide, downhill mountain biking, and putt putt golf. Our favorites are Goody's for breakfast/coffee and the Fraser River Trail for a walk or run.

Grand Lake is about 45 minutes away for those who want to spend time on the water or explore Rocky Mountain National Park (reservations are required for the park so plan ahead!)

Pole Creek Golf Club is a 20 minute drive from Winter Park Resort.

For a challenging but quick 2.1 mile hike, we recommend the Broome Hut Trail. If you keep hiking you will find lots of wild flowers!
