This is the first time the winter attraction will be in Eagle County, and it is one of two in Colorado. The Cripple Creek location will open for a second season Dec. 19. Additional locations are in Utah, New Hampshire and Minnesota.
“Step into magic and wonder with a landscape filled with ice slides, towers, tunnels and caverns. Explore stunning new sculptures crafted by internationally renowned ice sculptors,” the event website states. “Every element is designed to immerse visitors in a whimsical, fairy-tale environment.”
“We are thrilled to add a second location in Colorado this winter where we can create a sense of magic and wonder for our guests,” said Ice Castles’ CEO Kyle Standifird in a release. “Our team is energized to build an experience in Eagle that compliments the stunning natural beauty adjacent to the Eagle River.”
