Breckenridge
When you ask anyone about the first ski resort that comes to mind, we can almost guarantee that Breckenridge ski resort co will be in the top five resorts listed. Breckenridge ski resort co is a standout premier mountain resort and operates in a class of its own. Riders visiting the resort have come accustomed to a particular level of service that only a mega resort like Breckenridge ski resort co can deliver thanks to perfectly manicured trails, incredible vistas and a very well-developed lift infrastructure.
The mountain first opened for business in December of 1961 with a few trails on only peak 8 and since this date has grown to be one of the largest ski resorts in the world. Breckenridge ski resort co was also the first ski resort in Colorado that welcomed snowboarders which during the late 80s was extremely rare as skiing was still king on the mountains. Snowboarding is still at the heart of the operations here and Breckenridge ski resort co offers up one of the most legendary terrain parks in the Rockies.
Whilst the riding is legendary another major draw card to Breckenridge ski resort co is the mountain town which is in our opinion one of the best ski towns in Colorado and maybe the world. Founded in the 1850’s to serve the mining operation the history can still be felt by anyone who is walking down the streets packed full of colourful Victorian style buildings. To add to the value there is also a complementary bus service that runs around the town to ensure you can get to where you need to go, this is handy during some of the wild winter storms that Colorado is famous for.
Rounding out the pro’s to this resort would be the access which can be obtained by the Epic Pass which provides unlimited and unblocked access to the resort plus many others. Considering that the day lift pass for Breckenridge can pass $200 USD the epic pass pays for itself in 4 days of riding.
