Lift and Terrain Status

Ride the Imperial Express (North America’s highest chairlift) to 12,840 feet, ski the legendary Peak 6 bowls, and enjoy après-ski views from the gondola.

Breckenridge Ski Resort offers terrain for all skill levels but is famous for its high-alpine expert runs (58% of trails). Beginners (11%) enjoy gentle slopes on Peak 9, intermediates (31%) cruise groomers, and experts tackle steep bowls like Imperial Bowl. The high elevation (9,600–12,998 feet) adds challenge, but diverse terrain ensures something for everyone.

Breckenridge Ski Resort’s base elevation is 9,600 feet (2,926 meters), and its summit reaches 12,998 feet (3,963 meters)—one of the highest ski areas in North America. The Imperial Express SuperChair ascends to 12,840 feet, accessing expert terrain. High-altitude slopes provide light, dry snow but require acclimatization to avoid altitude sickness.

Yes! Breckenridge Ski Resort boasts three terrain parks on Peak 8, catering to all skill levels.
