The Boulder sledding scene can be great if you know where to go! Here is a brief update for anyone who is looking for a fun location to sled when we get snow.
Tantra Park
Tantra Park in South Boulder is considered the best and most dependable sledding hill. Located on the Southwest side of Tantra Park, this hill is steep and there are usually a lot of people there because the sledding is great! You can get going really fast here so consider wearing a helmet.
Chautauqua Park
By far the most spectacular and well known sledding hills are those of Chautauqua Park. Located at 900 Baseline Rd, you can expect the main hill to be filled with snow lovers! Enjoy this pristine location and grab lunch or a hot cocoa at the Chautauqua Dining Hall after you sled.
Casey Middle School
Casey Middle School has a great hill located right above the football fields on the corner of 13th and North. The hill isn't the longest, but it is a fun one!
Scott Carpenter Park
Scott Carpenter Park off 30th and Arapahoe features a designated sledding hill on the side facing 30th street. This hill is popular with families with small children as is not as steep as some of the others and the run out is flat.
Foothills Community Park
Foothills Community Park in North Boulder has a great sledding hill located near 6th and Locust. This North Boulder location offers fun sledding for everyone.
Harlow Platts Community Park
Harlow Platts Community Park in South Boulder isn't the steepest sledding hills in Boulder, CO, but the location right under the Flatirons can't be beat! This is a great hill for the younger kids and those not wanting too much speed.
I hope you enjoy the sledding!
