Winter Park Resort officially opened for the ski season on November 13 and Amtrak’s Winter Park Express tickets are officially on sale, too.
This year, the seasonal route between Winter Park Resort and Denver’s Union State will operate from December 10, 2026 through April 4, 2027, Thursday through Sunday.
