Winter Fun with No Skis Required

Go to great heights without all the gear. Even if you don’t ski or snowboard, plan a trip to Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park for a mountain of fun this winter! And if you do ski, set aside the sticks for a vacay day at America’s only mountaintop theme park.

Slope-side sports aren’t the only exhilarating form of winter recreation in Glenwood Springs. No skis, no board, no problem! Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park offers a thrilling winter alternative for non-skiers.

Ride the Lift Up

If you’ve never visited Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park, you might be surprised to learn that one of the first people you’ll meet on arrival is a lift operator. That’s right, just like at a ski area, our lifties will help you board the Glenwood Gondola. The gondola is made by Poma, a company that began in the French Alps in 1936. The earliest versions paved the way for lifts that made steep mountainous terrain accessible at ski resorts in Europe and the U.S. However, unlike riding the lift at the slopes, you don’t need to haul your gear aboard, just get comfy in the cabin and enjoy the views of Glenwood Springs as you ascend Iron Mountain to the park entrance.

Peak Ski-Free Fun

When you debark, there’s no slipping and sliding around in the snow. Glenwood Gondola slows to a near stop for an easy transition from the gondola cabin floor to a snow-free concrete walkway. But just like at the ski area, the real excitement begins once you get moving.

As you enter the Main Plaza, take a minute to get oriented and make a plan to navigate the park. Check our “trail maps,” the large signs that show where rides, attractions, restrooms and dining venues are located. If you have questions, visit the Guest Services gazebo.
