Where Can I Sled in Breckenridge?
Carter Park
The Carter Park sledding hill is free and located just four blocks east of Main Street. It’s a walk-up, slide-down sledding hill that has just the right amount of steepness. The sledding hill comes with its own free supply of sleds thanks to the Sled Shed, a community gear share that helps reduce waste and keep our sledding hill clean. Borrow, share, or return a sled for someone else to enjoy and help keep plastic out of the landfill. Availability depends on community participation, so leave your sled when you’re done for the next family to use.
Take in amazing views of thew Tenmile Mountain Range, then head back to town to warm up with a cup of hot cocoa. Parking on-site is limited, but bus and lodging shuttles drop-off nearby. Please respect the nearby neighbors of the park, as this is their backyard. Users must avoid others and usage of the Carter Park sledding hill is at your own risk.
