Directions: Take Hwy 51 to Milwaukee St. to Radar Hill. The land is apart of Hiestand Park. Comments: Largest sled riding hill in Madison. This is where the second hole is when the weather is warm. This is one major drop. The hill has sort of a basin shape, so only a few people can go down at a time. There is also a small hump/jump on the right side for those more adventurous. In addition, there are two smaller hills, one being a very small bunny hill for the real young, and another that is steeper and longer for those not brave enough to challenge Radar Hill.

Directions: Elver Park. Located on McKenna right before it turns into Gammon. Comments: Some say that this is the best hill in the area, but Radar Hill lovers would beg to differ. The sled riding hill gets really slick and iced over after a very short time. There are three main hills. One is at the first hole of the disc golf course. This hill is the smallest, least steep hill. This one is nice because it was less crowded. The second highest is on the second half of the second disc golf hole. This one is longer than the first and a bit steeper. This one was also fairly uncrowded. The last, and biggest hill is at the front end of the second disc golf hole. This hill is very wide, which allows for many to ride at once. The middle of the hill has a series of bumps, so beware when going down. Update data provided by Dane101.com. |

Directions: Huegel Hill at Huegel Elementary School, 2601 Prairie Rd. Comments: It has two really good sled riding sides on it, one that's a little steeper than the other. Another good thing is that it is not over used. If you go about midday on the weekend, you might encounter some elementary school kids, but there aren't many then and there aren't hardly, if any otherwise. The less steep of the two was a great hill offering not only a fast ride, but a long one. There was a side path off of this one offered more of an adventure, due to its narrowness. The main hill is a massive drop on top of a high hill. There was a few bumps going down. It is incredibly fast and long, offering a great challenge to those brave enough to attempt it.

Directions: Cherokee Middle School's Hill, 4301 Cherokee Drive. Located on Cherokee Road and Midvale just north of the Beltline.
Comments: Cherokee school's sled riding hill is spectactular. It's huge, and there are two right in row. (You go down one, you walk about fifty yards, you can go down another.) Because it's so wide, lots of people can be on it and you can still have your own area. By far the largest sledding location in Dane County in acreage. It hosts 3 sledding areas. The first is on the East side by the soccer nets. This is really only used for those coming in on this side as a primer for the real hills, but it is worth doing. The steeper of the next two hills is also the larger of the two. Get ready for about a drop with some bumps along the way. It is a short fast ride down. The nice thing is that the sheer size of this hill allows for many sledders without any worry of collisions. The highest hill has a slightly gentler slope and is also longer. This is a pretty big hill that has some bumps and jumps for those more adventurous. Update data provided by Dane101.com. |

Directions: Sanitarium Hill. Located on Madison’s north side on Northport Road just west of Sherman Avenue. Comments: Steep and it never looks too busy. There is a fence at the bottom of the hill. Does not affect every sledder, but some going far may want to look out for it. Named for the former sanitarium that adorns the top of the hill. This is one huge hill.

Directions: Ripp Park is located on 5th Street off of Main/Hwy 19. This hill is next to a snowmobile track. The track runs down only one side of the hill, so that leaves nearly 180 degrees of hill to sled down. Comments: The drop varies allowing riders to pick a side for which speed they want to go. This is a fairly slick hill, and you can travel very far on each run and at good speeds. Data provided by Dane101.com |

Directions: The hill is part of the Whitnall Park Golf Course, and can be accessed from Rawson Ave. just east of Hwy 100. This sledding hill is at the south-west end of the cross-country ski trail. Comments: Sledding hazards are minimal, since the hill is very wide. There are a couple of trees off to the very left side, and one pole guarded by hay bails on the far right side towards the bottome of the hill. Parking is on the sholder of Rawson Ave. Daytime use (no lights). |
