Things to do in Breckenridge, Colorado (CO): The Best Outdoor Activities
Once a mountain mining town decimated and nearly destroyed by river dredging, the surprisingly versatile Breckenridge has bounced back over the last century to become one of Colorado's top year round alpine getaways, with all-seasons activities galore. Restoration of the river area has led to the creation of pristine hiking trails and greenery in the summer months, but winter is the real draw. Skiers flock to the groomed slopes, chutes and bowls of Breckenridge Ski Resort by the million.

Such a convenient way of dealing with ski/board rentals. We booked before trip. Friendly and knowledgeable staff, they come to your lodging with a selection of equipment at a pre set time. Any issues with equipment are dealt with quickly. Returns are just as easy. Equipment better than most of the rental set ups around town. Have used them 4 times now - never fail to impress.

This is an amazing hike. Not for beginners or small children. It took us about 3 hours to the top. It’s very steep at the top and rocky but well worth the views. Absolutely beautiful. Take water and a few snacks and of course a camera!!!!!!!!! You won’t be disappointed.

we had a great time! Roger gave us a quick lesson and we all were zipping down the hill and feeling perfectly comfortable almost immediately. The bikes are a perfect way for a non skier to get up on the hill and a blast for avid skiers and snowboarders. do yourself a favor and give this a try!

This trail had everything for us (we are not super hikers). You get to walk here from downtown quite easily (no car hassles). You begin up and underneath the ski lift and then enter a wonderful section alongside a bustling little river. You pass over a few fairly new wood bridges and eventually come up to the Sawmill Reservoir (we would pack out lunch and have a picnic along the way or at the reservoir). A true gem!
