☃️ Outdoor Play & Sledding Spots

Winter in Florissant brings long cold spells and periodic snowfall, and when snow sticks, neighborhood parks shift into quieter, wintry spaces. Gentle elevation and open lawns can still deliver enjoyable sledding and fresh-air breaks once conditions line up.

Florissant spots to consider:

• St. Ferdinand Park adapts easily to winter weather, with open ground and slight natural slopes that work for casual sledding and relaxed winter walks. Its central location makes it easy to stop by after a snowfall without planning a larger trip. (Source: City of Florissant, Missouri)

Further outdoors:

• Art Hill — For wider hills and more room to spread out, Art Hill in Forest Park offers long, consistent slopes that draw sledders after bigger storms. It’s about a 25 to 30-minute drive from Florissant and provides a more expansive sledding setting while remaining a public park.

Bundle up, stay safe and have fun wherever winter takes you!
