Sledding is a popular winter activity where individuals slide down snow-covered hills on a sled. Sleds can be made from various materials, including plastic, wood, or metal, and come in different designs. This fun pastime is enjoyed by people of all ages and is often done in parks or designated sledding areas. To sled, participants typically sit or lie on the sled and push off from the top of a hill. Gravity pulls them down, creating a thrilling ride. Safety gear, such as helmets, is recommended to prevent injuries, especially for younger sledders. Popular sledding locations often have gentle slopes for beginners and steeper hills for more experienced riders.
