Snow (again) in Richmond.
It’s a (sometimes) rare chance to grab that sled and hit the “slopes” We’ve made a list of some great places to sled around town when school is out (because it will be).
Please note that parks close at dark and it’s prohibited to sled on something weird like a sheet of metal- use a proper sled. And, of course, please stay safe.
Have something you’d like to add to this list or want to make a note of something? Comment below or send an email to [email protected] and we’ll get added (or a note made) nice and quick.
Forest Hill Park This one is a Richmond Favorite. In fact, I’m pretty sure that Forest Hill should be re-named “Sledding Hill” or “oh my gosh it snowed in Richmond Hill” or “At Least They’ll Sleep Tonight Hill” or “Hi, Mom, I’m on TV Hill” since it’s usually in the local news.
But wait there is more!! You can also go sledding at these places in the Richmond area:
Bryan Park 4308 Hermitage Rd., Richmond, VA
The entrance to the park is located near the I-95 interchange in the 4300 block of Hermitage Road
