Breckenridge

In a nutshell

Breckenridge has been the most popular American resort for British skiers for many years and you'll soon see why. Firstly, the high altitude and consistent snow record guarantees great skiing all season. Plus, there's a great mix of skiing for all abilities and an additional 165 acres of terrain at the base of Peak 7, which is particularly popular.

Founded in 1859 and formerly a Victorian gold-mining town, there's plenty of character with renovated clapboard buildings at the bottom of Main Street complemented by modern shopping malls to cater for your every need.

Christmas lights twinkle for much of the winter season too and with over 100 restaurants and bars, this lively resort town can boast a welcoming atmosphere to rival any USA ski resort! What's more, our accommodation is very close to the base of Peak 9 and the lively attractions of Main Street - so you get the best of both worlds - skiing and après-ski!

Après-ski
Breckenridge is a great destination for those seeking a lively après-ski scene. Happy hours and live entertainment await those returning from the slopes and there are stacks of restaurants to choose from when you've had your fill of early-evening drinks.

Sample the atmosphere of the Wild West bars including The Gold Pan Saloon dating back from gold rush days or The Brewery - the 'liveliest bar in town', famous for its on-the-spot brewed beers. And for those who think they can co-ordinate 2 left feet, you could follow this and try your hand at some line dancing too!
