GETTING THERE
Nearest Airports
Approximate planning ranges; allow extra time for traffic and winter conditions.
From Denver, drive I-70 west and follow US-40 over Berthoud Pass. Allow extra time for weekend traffic and check COtrip for winter road conditions and closures. For a car-free approach, take the airport A Line to Denver Union Station, then the seasonal Winter Park Express to the resort on its operating dates. Book the ski train separately and check connections. The Lift bus serves the local Winter Park and Fraser corridor.

Colorado's most dog-friendly ski resort. Leashed dogs welcome in base areas and village. Pet-friendly lodging options. Summer gondola rides available for dogs.
Confirm rooms, fees and access rules with the property or resort before you travel. A pet-friendly area does not mean pets can use ski slopes or lifts.
