Notes from sourceVisit Boulder says to stay in the designated area near the Ski Jump Trail and ask at the Ranger Cottage. City OSMP rules ban sledding outside designated areas.
Local note“Right next to the playground is a perfect sledding hill - a steep dip gives you just enough speed to ride it out over a long, flat section that’s far from any traffic.” (Visit Boulder, checked 2026-10-28)
