Breckenridge was built on discovery and was founded in 1859 as a gold mining town. Some may see the area as a diamond in the rough while traversing from the Denver airport to arrive at this scenic spot. Take in the mountains, rivers and landscapes while traveling to this remote part of the world.
Breckenridge has twice the elevation of Denver so drink plenty of water while visiting this high altitude. Take it easy and breathe in that crisp, clean air when ascending the mountain to meet other ski enthusiasts. Riding the BreckConnect Gondola to the top is a breeze in just over 10 minutes.
