Breckenridge, Colorado Now best known for its world-class ski resort, Breckenridge Colorado, the oldest and largest Colorado town in high-altitude Summit County, also affords a rich mining and frontier history that's been diligently protected by Breckenridge locals. In fact, the town's 254-building National Historic District is one of the largest in Colorado. The Summit Historical Society regularly shows off seven historic sites on their 12-block public walking tour of downtown Breckenridge.
Skiers rave about the massive, yet accessible four-mountain resort at Breckenridge, where 2,043 acres of ski runs practically bump into town, offering both families and expert skiers something to slide down. In the summer, Colorado sport enthusiasts should try the Jack Nicklaus-designed public golf course or explore the 100 miles of paved biking trails leading to Keystone, Frisco, or Vail.
And at night Breckenridge Colorado earns its reputation as one of the best party towns in the Rocky Mountains. Visitors young and old will enjoy the great variety of eateries and fine dining, and shops that entice the imagination and please the pocketbook.
