Great ski weekend for my first time at Winter Park. I am an East Coast skier so the dumping snow during the trip was a great treat! I enjoyed the groomed runs and the glades as well!

Winter Park has a wide variety of runs from beginner to lots of advanced tree runs and backcountry steep bowls. This year we have had very good snow, among the most in Colorado. Because of how Winter Park faces the snow is usually stays very nice. Recent upgrades to the lifts have improved lift lines a lot.

Mary Jane moguls and Eagle wind trees are really good. There is not much extreme terrain but if you look hard enough you can get into some really steep chutes and areas with a lot of cliffs to drop. The main draw are the ungroomed Mary Jane trails and the trees. There is not much open bowl skiing and the groomers are just ok. You can usually escape weekend crowds on some of the smaller slower lifts.

Winter park does a great job in being family friendly. They have wonderful terrain for everyone. I do feel like sunspot does not have that great of food for being the main place to get to.

Shorter lines than more popular areas, less crowding on runs. This makes area accommodating for skiers improving with more runs per day and less risk of collisions

Stayed in winter park Jan 22-27. It snowed the entire time! POW! Green and blue runs were awesome! No lines during the week but probably because it was 0 % be forewarned food on the mountain is expensive and horrible

Winter Park advertises that you dont need to go through the I-70 tunnels, but the traffic can be just as bad. The crowd control (or flow of people moving around the mountain) can make lift lines long and slow down your day. Facilities on the mountain are great, but prices are high like most on-mountain food and drink options at US ski resorts. It feels predominantly geared towards Colorado locals (as opposed to a Vail or Breckenridge).

Winter park is a great resort for skiers of all levels. It has a bit of everything and so many fun runs to explore. Accommodations are great and there are restaurants and other places to stop by not only at the base, but at the top of the mountain.

Great resort with a large footprint. Some issues with bottlenecks in Mary Jane and at the base. Some difficult to access spots. A couple chairlifts like Challenger are in desperate need of a high speed lift remodel. Still feels like a local resort but with high end resort amenities and terrain.

Skiing in April was a great experience for us because Winter Park had so much snow that skiing off-piste and through the trees was still possible. The whole resort was groomed really well, with easy access from the parking lot, and having a train station at the base of the ski resort was convenient for a quick trip from Denver, taking less than 90 minutes. The restaurants in town were excellent, offering everything from fine dining to BBQ on the street.

Winter Park has levels for everyone! From greens to Blues which is what I stick to, to blacks, mogul, and tree routes. We know we'll keep coming back, and enjoy every second of it! I improved so much after the first day of ski school, and exploring the mountain by myself at whateverpace i was ready for, even through the trees!

Resort was super quiet on a non holiday weekend. Even with a bit of new snow. Taking the train from Denver makes this a really accessible option for anyone flying in from outside of Colorado. Tree runs had fresh snow all the time. Eagle wind is the best difficult terrain. Cold.

This resort is amazing with runs and areas for skiers/snowboarders all levels. There is something for every level skier/snowboarder to do. So much room to grow as a skier/snowboarder with this mountain. The views are amazing, the staff are very friendly, and there are plenty to do at the base. The snow is great. It just gets very crowded every weekend and parking is always a struggle if you dont show up first thing in the morning. They have buses that help with transportation from lots. Overall, awesome resort!

I love Winter Park! It's not the biggest resort but it has plenty of terrain for all abilities and really has something special about it. Ski patrol and all other staff are super friendly and helpful. Food is generally good but pricey - would appreciate more vegan options!The emphasis here is definitely on the skiing, not the aprés but there are some nice bars and restaurants.

Definitely a skiers mountain. WAY more flats than we all expected. Lots of unstrapping involved & lots of traversing. The mountain is way bigger than we thought, so there was a lot of beautiful untouched powder everyday, but the mountain had SO many flats & moguls, we definitely felt as snowboarders ostracized. The terrain park takes to long to get to for how short it is.

I had a great experience at Winter Park. Overall it is an extremely cool resort with an endless amount of things to do. Loved the hill variety and terrain. My only frustration was how long lines were at each lift. However, overall a great place to be, loved it.
