Breckenridge, Colourado Travel Tips
Millennials Are Flocking to Breckenridge, CO — Here's Why It's a Must Visit
3
Ski, snowboard, hike, bike, kayak, paddleboard — if you can do it outdoors, you can probably do it here at some time during the year. While there's a lot to be said for Breck as a ski destination, including its proximity to other ski areas like Keystone, Arapahoe Basin, and Copper Mountain, people come for the Winter and stay for the Summer, as the saying goes.
There are hiking trails out the back door of almost anywhere you stay in town. Whether you're taking your first hike and looking to stay on flat ground and snap a selfie or looking to conquer your first 14er (a nickname for the peaks at 14,000-plus feet above sea level in Colourado), hiking is available to anyone at any level here.
Looking to combine outdoor activity with a sampling of some of the area's local spirits? Check out Ridden's fat bike tour, which hits the highlights downtown before taking you out to a local brewery and a local distillery.
