ACTIVITIES:

ALPINE SLIDE
Winter Park's ALPINE SLIDE is the longest in Colorado. With over 3,000 feet long, the heart-pounding track winds its way down the mountain. An epic ride to have on the festival site!

CHAIRLIFT RIDES
The Winter Park Resort ski lift will be open during the festival. Let The Zephyr Express chairlift whisk you from the Village at Winter Park up to an elevation of 10,700 feet. This ride offers spectacular views of the Continental Divide and the Fraser Valley. And at the top, The Lodge at Sunspot offers fantastic mountaintop dining including lunch and snacks.

OUTDOOR CLIMBING WALL
Come test your climbing skills on the outdoor climbing wall. Located between the Leaps and Bounds Bungee and the Alpine Slide, this activity delivers challenge, excitement, and adventure to your Winter Park Resort experience.

HUMAN MAZE
Located at the base of the resort, this maze twists and turns in every direction. Finding four check points and racing against the clock adds an extra dimension of challenge to the frequently re-configured labyrinth.

LEAPS & BOUNDS BUNGEE
The Leaps & Bounds Bungee features four individual trampolines linked by one center tower. Flips and twists are easy to perform on these trampolines with the help of the bungee cord

MINI GOLF
Mountainside Mini Golf at the base of Winter Park has eighteen holes, each depicting historic aspects of the Fraser Valley.

MOUNTAIN BIKING
Winter Park offers some of the most spectacular riding in the western U.S. Whether you're a novice or an expert downhiller, there are plenty of trails for you to experience. With over 600 miles of trails throughout the Winter Park and Fraser areas, it's no wonder Winter Park has been dubbed Mountain Bike Capital USA.

HUMAN GYROSCOPE
Have you ever floated in space? The GyroXtreme is similar to the equipment designed by NASA for astronaut training, and used by many air forces to train their fighter pilots. More importantly, it offers plenty of fun for kids of all ages, and should not be missed.
