Winter Park Sleigh Rides

An old-fashioned Colorado sleigh ride is a popular option for many people in search of an all-round winter vacation experience. Gather the family or friends together and go dashing through the snow in a sleigh pulled by a team of horses. Enjoy some peace and serenity with great scenery along the way.

Vacations Inc recommends Sombrero Stables, Colorado's premier horse outfitter, which operates out of two locations. At Beaver Village in Winter Park, enjoy a scenic ride through the trees and open meadows, and along the Fraser River with a stop at cowboy camp for hot cocoa and marshmallows around a campfire. Call 970-722-0100 for times, rates & reservations.

At Snow Mountain Ranch, in addition to a hot cocoa ride, a Dinner Sleigh Ride is offered nightly at 6pm. Enjoy a 40-minute sleigh ride while the stars and moon guide you along the trail. Return to a warm, cozy dining hall where dinner will be cooked to your liking. Select a 100% Angus steak, roasted chicken or poached Rocky Mountain trout. Dinner salad, baked potato, ranch beans, garlic bread, fruit crisp with ice cream for dessert and a variety of beverages are also included. Transportation can also be arranged. Call 970-887-1999 for rates and reservations which are required.
