Ruby Hill Park

Denver's Best Sledding Spot

Ruby Hill Park is south Denver's hidden gem—a massive hill with panoramic views of the Front Range and downtown skyline. In winter it's the city's premier sledding destination. Year-round it offers a bike park, disc golf, and some of the best sunsets in Denver.

Winter Sledding

After a good snowfall, Ruby Hill becomes the city's sledding mecca. The long, steep runs draw families from across Denver. Multiple slopes offer options for kids and thrill-seekers alike.

Ruby Hill Bike Park

Denver's free bike park features pump tracks, jump lines, and skills areas for mountain bikers and BMX riders. Great for beginners and experienced riders. Bring your own bike and helmet.

The Views

The hilltop offers 360-degree views—downtown skyline to the north, mountains to the west. It's one of the best sunset spots in Denver, and far less crowded than the more famous parks.

Pro Tip: After a big snow, arrive early—the parking lot fills fast. Bring your own sled (stores sell out quickly). The South Platte River Trail runs adjacent for a post-sledding walk.
