Winter Park sits along the Fraser River in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains, and its high-valley position west of the Continental Divide has shaped it as a base for snow sports and mountain travel. Winter Park Resort opened in 1940 and remains central to the town’s identity, with lifts climbing the slopes above the valley. The Moffat Tunnel, completed in 1928 beneath the Divide, links the area by rail to Denver; the Winter Park Express follows this historic route during ski season. Summer brings hiking and cycling in the surrounding Arapaho National Forest. Explore additional webcams nearby to see how Winter Park and the Fraser Valley connect with the Continental Divide.
