MIDDLE PARK

Colorado

Middle Park, west of the front range, is the home of such towns as Winter Park, Fraser, and Granby. It is reached from the east via Berthoud Pass. Watch the guard rails here. Fraser typically is one of the coldest places in Colorado during the winter months. Winter Park is home of the Winter Park Ski Resort. From Granby, you can reach Trail Ridge Road and Estes Park.

Amtrak's California Zepher stops at Granby. During the winter weekends, the Rio Grande Ski Train takes skiers from Denver to Winter Park, for skiing, a 2 hour trip, each way. The Ski Train drops you right at the Winter Park Ski Resort.

The pictures below give you a feel for the area during the Summer months.
