Winter sleigh rides in Aspen
Savour the golden past as you immerse yourself in a memorable sleigh ride. There’s nothing quite more tranquil than gliding through a Colorado countryside on a sled pulled by giant equines.
Public Sleigh Ride – Shorter, twenty minute rides across sparkling fields of snow. Cozy blankets and hot chocolate will keep your warm. Public trips usually fill up 24-48 hours in advance, so please reserve in advance. Trips typically run daily during season from 1-4pm.
Private Sleigh Ride – Get picked up in town and whisked away to a secluded sleigh route. The trek takes you through an aspen and evergreen forest, along an open meadow before parking next to a beautiful bridge for hot cocoa and apple cider. Then return to the starting point, about 60-75 minutes it total. They will drop you back off at your hotel or a restaurant of your choosing.
Three sleigh rides are available to accommodate group sizes up to seven riders. Daytime and starlit sleigh rides are also possible.
Special Events – Rent a private sleigh for a holiday party or any memorable winter moment. If weather is not cooperative, small wheels can be attached to a certain sleigh. Have Santa show up on a real sleigh!
