One of the best ways to take in the stunning winter landscape of Summit County is on a sleigh or wagon ride. These scenic rides offer an unforgettable way to experience the beauty of the snow-covered mountains, frozen lakes, and alpine forests. 

Imagine gliding through the snow in a horse-drawn sleigh, wrapped in cozy blankets, while taking in breathtaking views of the Rockies. Many local companies offer sleigh and wagon rides, some of which are paired with dinner options for a special evening out, such as at Two Below Zero in Frisco, or at Breckenridge Stables in Breckenridge. 

This is a perfect activity for families, couples, or anyone looking to slow down and soak in the natural beauty of Summit County without the rush of skiing.

For those seeking a rush of excitement, snow tubing is the perfect activity. It’s fast, fun, and thrilling—and it doesn’t require any skill or experience! 

Several locations in the area offer snow tubing, including the Frisco Adventure Park and Keystone Resort’s Tubing Hill. These spots feature groomed lanes and lifts to make the experience even easier, allowing you to focus on the fun rather than trudging back up the hill. 

Whether you’re tubing solo, with friends, or as a family, it’s an activity that promises plenty of laughter and adventure.

Ice skating is another favorite winter activity in Summit County, and there’s no better time to lace up your skates than during spring break. The town of Breckenridge features an outdoor rink that’s open year-round, making it the perfect place to enjoy a quintessential mountain experience with a little extra charm. 

For something a bit more unique, visit the Keystone Lake Ice Rink, an outdoor rink surrounded by majestic peaks, or Dercum Square ice rink located in River Run Village.        

If you’re seeking something a bit more unusual and off-the-beaten-path, axe throwing is an activity you won’t want to miss. This rapidly growing sport is a great way to have fun and challenge your friends and family. Test your aim and strength as you throw axes at a wooden target in a safe and controlled environment. 

In Summit County, there are a few axe-throwing venues, including Thrashin' Axes in Frisco, where you can book private lanes for your group. Axe throwing is perfect for those looking for a unique and social experience. It’s also a fun way to unwind after a day of outdoor adventures or to spice up your evening plans.
