getting from Denver to Winter Park
car hire
For those of you travelling to Colorado from out of state or another country, we recommend flying into Denver International Airport (DIA) and hiring a car. Public transportation in Colorado is not very frequent, so hiring a car will give you the greatest flexibility and ease of getting around during your stay.

amtrak train
If driving does not appeal, there is one daily train that runs from Denver to Fraser. The train is a fantastic and relaxing way to travel to the wedding while enjoying incredible scenery, but please ensure that the departure and arrival times will suit your itinerary.
Tickets cost around $20 one way and can be purchased at http://www.amtrak.com/. It's best to book ahead as the train is popular amongst Colorado locals and tickets could sell out. A taxi from the airport to Denver's Union Station will take around 30-45 mins.
Departs: 8:05am
Denver, CO (DEN)
Arrives: 10:07am
Fraser, CO (WIP)
After arriving in Fraser, you can catch a taxi or a free shuttle called "The Lift" to most of the hotels listed on the accommodation page.
There is one daily train that returns from Fraser to Denver at 4:30pm and arrives at 7:18pm. Alternatively, you can also take the airport shuttle listed below back to Denver or get in touch with Hillary as several other wedding guests will likely be travelling on the same day and we can easily arrange a ride.
winter park airport shuttle
If train times don't work with your flight, there is a van shuttle service between the airport and Winter Park that runs every hour between 5:30am and 7pm. Tickets are $60 one way and it's best to book at least 7 days in advance. There is an $8 discount for groups of 3 or more people so if you decide to take the shuttle, please let us know and we'll see if we can arrange other wedding guests to travel together.

If none of these options will work with your travel plans, please do get in touch with us and we will make arrangements to pick you up at the airport and arrange a ride to the wedding.
transport to and from the wedding
We will be arranging transportation to and from the ceremony from the hotels listed on the accommodations page, so if you choose not to stay at Devil's Thumb Ranch, we hope you'll enjoy indulging in a few celebratory drinks with us throughout the evening without worrying about how to get back to your hotel. We'll publish details about drop-off and pick-up times closer to the wedding date and ensure the information is provided to you upon check-in at your hotel.
