The Breckenridge and Copper Mountain ski resorts are also nearby and provide all sorts of skiing and snowboarding opportunities. Any outdoor enthusiast will certainly find a huge range of ski trails and activities for all levels of experience and ability.

We went to the Frisco Historic Park and Museum by accident and kept finding more to see. We ended up not seeing everything, but were kept interested and entertained for a couple of hours. We noticed a number of groups with younger children visiting and they all seemed to be happy. It's a good shady area as well - I found the sun to be very hot when we visited near the end of August. Once we were in the museum area it didn't worry me at all. There are many different buildings, including a jail, a church and a variety of cabins. Parking was easy to find within a short walk of the museum. The web site is worth reviewing before you go. It will help set expectations, especially for those with children.
3. Frisco Emporium

Reviewed By robertsphilippe - Frisco, United States
The business was totally rebranded this spring and is more like a western department store than an emporium. Actually has some museum qualities with historical skis and really fantastic animal mounts, deer, elk, sheep, bobcats and even skunks! The 5 or 6 fashion departments are outstanding and the best vintage clothing collection I have ever shopped, priced right. Friendly and helpful staff could not do enough to pack our purchases to travel by car. I have heard nothing but rave reviews of the new and improved shopping experience. We will go back every time we visit this area.

This was an easy hike near downtown Frisco to a beautiful lake. Our friends thought the pictures were Photo-shopped because of the perfect snow-capped mountains in the background.

This hike was very pleasant to get our bodies reacquainted to the altitude. We live in KC but visit annually to hike during the foliage change. The first mile was a slight challenge but quickly evened out. We followed the stream down to the waterfall then back. It was lovely.
