With four skateparks located within a 20-minute drive of one another, Summit County is truly skate country, stacking up well against any other skateboard-friendly zones like Southern California or Oregon. Summit was one of the first places in Colorado to start installing permanent concrete skateboard parks, and after more than 10 years, the terrain and surfaces are still awesome. Here’s a list of Summit County skateparks with all the information you’ll need to pick the park that’s right for you or spend the day sessioning them all. Don’t forget your skateboard!

Silverthorne skatepark is located in Rainbow Park at the rec center on Rainbow Drive, next to the soccer field and playground. If the parking on the north side of the park is full, go to the north end of the rec center parking lot and roll or walk down to the skatepark. Silvy offers a blended street and bowl skateboarding experience, like many skateparks these days. Instead of having a dedicated street skating area with ramps, banks and rails separate from any bowls or pools, the park is made up of transitions, ramps, banks, rails and bowl features blended into one large zone. This configuration makes it a fun place to be creative, mixing different styles of skating together. The “ninja wall,” “teacup,” “7-foot wall” and the spine offer skaters some challenging runs to try. Silverthorne skatepark also has some natural rock features built into the concrete surface to boost your creativity.

Frisco skatepark is a free public park in the Frisco Adventure Park featuring smooth Skatelite-surfaced ramps on a concrete surface, with both street-skating features and mini ramps to play on. The terrain is very beginner friendly, with ramps and street features ranging from two to six feet. There are a few mini ramps to practice transition-skating skills, and a dedicated street skating area, too. Local skaters have been known to call the park “the Frisco training center” because of the learning-friendly environment. But, that doesn’t mean it isn’t packed with skaters on a sunny Saturday, so get there early if you want more space to yourself.

The only indoor public skatepark in Summit County, Woodward at Copper Mountain lets you skate even if it’s winter and dumping snow outside. Woodward has a small bowl in the Cage facility, which is free to skate, located in the retail store at Copper Village. Head down the street to the Barn and find two ramps and a bowl with vert. On weekends this summer, you can skate for $5/two-hour session or $10/all day. The Barn also has rental boards and pads in case you forgot yours. Woodward also uses a Skatelite surface on the ramps and bowl, which gives a nice reprieve from the unforgiving hardness of the concrete parks in the county. With a small two-foot mini ramp, a beautiful six-footer, and a vert bowl with a shallow end and a deep end, Woodward at Copper’s skatepark is a great learning zone with plenty of terrain for advancement, too. There is also an outdoor street section for summertime, and an indoor street area where skaters can drag ramps and rails into different configurations for endless creativity. If you sign up for a Barn session on the trampolines and foam pits, you can even practice harder skate tricks off their “cliff” into a foam pit. You won’t find that at any outdoor skatepark.

One of Summit County’s original skateparks, Breckenridge has a street-skating zone and a separate skateboard bowl to drop into. The street zone is made of metal-surfaced ramps on concrete, with two sides flanked by the “ancient wall,” a part of the original skatepark features that were there before the 1999 rebuild. These are steep three-foot walls with quick trannies that make for short and advanced terrain. There’s a pyramid with a rail up and over it, a four-foot quarterpipe and a two-level grinding box in the street area. Breck’s bowl is a classic five-foot mini-ramp bowl, plus a waterfall down to a tight eight-foot vert deep end. There are hips and corners, a spine and a volcano in the bowl, leading to endless lines and creative ways to skate it. It’s long and skinny, leading some to call it a “snake run” after the ’70s terrain it resembles. Breck’s skatepark is located at Kingdom Park, next to the rec center just north of town, and now has lights on until 10 p.m. for those cool summer sessions.
