City of Madison Parks lists designated sledding hills in nine parks: Aldo Leopold, Arbor Hills, Berkley, Elver, Garner, Hiestand, Olbrich, Orlando Bell and Warner. Most aren't monitored, so check the snow cover and the run-out yourself. Elver Park is the exception: its hill is generally monitored for snow cover, it's lit for evening sledding when there's good snow, and when the warming shelter is staffed you can rent or buy a sled there. Parks are open from 4am to 10pm. Source: City of Madison Parks, Sledding (checked November 2026).
