And of course after a long day of skiing be sure to make your après ski experience complete by spending an evening out in our authentic, hip mountain town. With over 200 restaurants, bars, and shops, you’re destined to find a good time in this unique yet casual atmosphere. Breckenridge is also home to a variety of exciting events, including the nationally televised Winter Dew Tour in December and the annual Spring Massive Festival in April. So come to Breckenridge and see why it is consistently recognized as not only one of the most popular ski resorts in the country, but a perennial world-wide favorite.
The completion of One Ski Hill Place, a RockResort, brings a new level of high-end real estate and lodging to Breckenridge. This luxurious ski-in/ski-out resort provides access to four chairlifts during the winter, hiking, biking, and the Peak 8 Fun Park during the summer, plus access to town via the BreckConnect Gondola.
