Explore the snowy side of Silverthorne this winter!


Stay

Rest your head at The Pad, which features a variety of rooms for every type of traveler. With affordable lodging options, impressive details, a plethora of local art and an environmentally focused design, The Pad provides quick access to all that Silverthorne has to offer. 

Day 1

boy with sled

Rise and shine with Red Buffalo Coffee & Tea. Order your beverage and relax outside on the back patio overlooking the Blue River or take it to go and enjoy a winter stroll along the Blue River Trail. The trail is maintained by Town staff throughout the winter and is the perfect place for a family-friendly outing or a snowy walk with your four-legged friend.

Enjoy the simple pleasures of winter with a day of sledding at Rainbow Park or Maryland Creek Park. Families with little ones will want to head to Rainbow Park for its smaller and gentler slopes, while older kids and adults will want to try the larger hill at Maryland Creek Park. Even if you haven’t been sledding in years, don’t miss the magic of slipping and sliding down the snow!

After a day outside playing like a kid again (or with your kids!), refuel with dinner from Timberline Craft Kitchen & Cocktails, which features Colorado-sourced global inspired cuisine. 


Day 2

Man and woman cross country skiing

Warm up for a day of adventure with a biscuit sandwich from House of Vibes Coffee & Curio, one of Silverthorne's newest eateries. Check out the local art and "curio" while waiting for your order.

Take in the stunning mountain views surrounding Silverthorne by snowshoes or Nordic skis. The Raven Golf Club at Three Peaks offers two free snowshoe and Nordic ski courses during the winter months, with a green South Course for beginners and a blue North Course for more advanced terrain. For those looking to rent cross country skis or snowshoes, head to Gore Range Sports or Wild Ernest Sports

If you are looking to get off the course and into the woods, check out Acorn Creek, Willow Creek, Salt Lick Trail or Angler Mountain Trail for a scenic snowshoe tour. Many of these trails are regularly used and depending on recent snow conditions, may be packed down enough to only require sturdy hiking shoes or snow boots, making them easy to access for all.

A day filled with winter adventure isn’t complete without après. Celebrate with a local brew from Angry James Brewing Company or Syndicate Brewing Co. 


Day 3

family ice skating

Take to the ice at North Pond Park and pirouette and play, or hook a trout! During the winter, North Pond transforms into a free ice rink with ice skating and pick-up hockey games at the north end and space for ice fishing on the south end of the pond. Be sure to bring your own skates as rentals are not available. If fishing is more your speed, get set up with poles, bait and an ice auger at Murdoch’s. Before you head to North Pond Park, pick up lunch to go from Enza's Delicatessen and Market for a winter picnic.

Adventures can be found around every corner in Silverthorne. Go skiing or snowboarding at one of the many nearby world-class resorts, book a guided backcountry skiing or ice climbing adventure with Colorado Adventure Guides, or simply sit back, relax and enjoy the views of Buffalo Mountain and the sounds of the Blue River. From family-friendly weekend getaways to adventure-filled excursions, Silverthorne is the perfect basecamp for winter exploring. We look forward to seeing you in our mountain community soon!
