4 days in Breckenridge Itinerary

Founded in 1859 as part of the Gold Rush in the Rockies, Breckenridge boasts a main street lined with colorful wooden storefronts housing cafes and shops, giving the effect of a thriving western town from the 19th century.

Visiting Vail Mountain Resort and French Gulch will get you outdoors. Venture out of the city with trips to Aspen Mountain / Ajax (in Aspen) and Beaver Creek Ski Area (in Beaver Creek). There's still lots to do: ski along the peaceful trails at Breckenridge Nordic Center, take in the awesome beauty at Peak 9, grab your bike and head to Wellington Trail, and stroll around Frisco Adventure Park.
