Are you looking for the ultimate adrenaline rush? The Superslide at Breckenridge is built as a giant slalom course, including dips and steep turns that are most appropriate for an experienced slider. There is also a slalom track where novices practice their sledding skills. Just 90 minutes away in Glenwood Springs you can enjoy great white-knuckle thrill rides like the Alpine Coaster, the Swing Shot and bungee trampolines. All of these activities are safe and loads of fun, but they are not for the faint of heart. Younger kids can enjoy all the thrills of the Wild West Wagon Ride and 4-D Theater at Glenwood Springs Adventure Park.
