About travelling from Denver International Airport (DEN) to Breckenridge, CO

Breckenridge is a historic mining town turned world-class mountain destination. The resort has over 2,900 acres of skiable terrain spread across five connected peaks, with a wide variety

of runs. Peak 8 and Peak 9 are ideal for beginners and intermediates with long blues and great learning zones, while Peak 10 steps things up with steeper, more technical terrain. For advanced skiers and riders, the hike-to chutes and open faces on Peak 6 and the high-alpine bowls accessed from the Imperial Express (the highest chairlift in North America).

The town of Breckenridge is one of the most walkable and character-filled ski towns in Colorado. Main Street is lined with craft breweries, coffee shops, bakeries, outdoor stores, and restaurants housed in colourful historic buildings from its old mining days. Breckenridge Brewery & Pub is a staple for post-ski beers, Ollie’s Pub has that friendly local feel, and Downstairs at Eric’s is a reliable go-to for comfort food. If you’re looking for something a little more refined, Hearthstone pairs elevated cuisine with mountain views and Aurum offers polished but relaxed dining. For coffee and breakfast, The Crown, Clint’s Bakery, and Cool River Coffee House are morning regulars.

Winter is the main draw, but Breckenridge is just as lively in summer. The Epic Discovery area on Peak 8 gives chairlift-access to hiking and sightseeing, while mountain bikers take advantage of the renowned Breckenridge Bike Park, which features trails catering to all skill levels and has become a major destination for riders from across North America. You will also find golfing, outdoor concerts, farmers markets and festivals that keep the town lively throughout the warmer months.
