Rock Climbing
The Arapaho National Forest is home to some of the most scenic rock formations you can come across in this area. It’s just the kind of adventure you’d enjoy with your buddies. If you don’t have experience climbing, that’s not a problem. Just take a rock-climbing tour and let the experts guide you until you get your rock-climbing feet, so to speak. The rocks suit the beginners and the intermediate skill levels. During the winter months, some indoor climbing outlets are available as well. Climbing walls offer the same thrill and challenge as natural rocks. Check Snow Mountain Ranch’s three-story climbing wall. Fraser Valley Rec also has a 33-foot-high wall to climb. It’s definitely one of the funnest Winter Park, Colorado activities.
Hot Air Balloon Ride
If rock climbing isn’t adventurous enough, try hot air ballooning. Soar to the sky like an eagle and enjoy a stunning 360 view of the whole area—the mountains, the rivers, the valleys, and the forests. This memorable view will stay with you for years. Watch wildlife going about their daily activities from high above. Float over the treetops so close you can actually touch them. Weave your way between the peaks of the mountains and follow the shimmering rivers and creeks. Your tour ends with a bang with a champagne celebration when you touch the ground again for your guy’s getaway to Winter Park!
Train Rides
Remember that childhood dream you had to grow up to be a train driver? No, you won’t be driving trains with this tour, but you’ll enjoy a scenic ride down panoramic scenes and untouched natural beauty! The Georgetown loop train ride will take you close to the rugged Rocky Mountains before it plunges into Clear Creek Canyon. Keep your camera ready as you will pass some old silver and gold mines. Climb over peaks and speed down valleys in one thrill ride.
