Things to do

family hiking
Take in the views and enjoy the scenery on one of Breckenridge’s hiking trails.

Is a deep breath of pure, refreshing Rocky Mountain air an activity? We think so. When you come here to simply to bask in summer’s cool mountain breezes, that’s a-ok with us. Most likely though, you’ll be too tempted by adventure to sit still for too long.  Hiking and biking our hundreds of trails crisscrossing historic town and legendary Rocky Mountains never gets old. But have you tried rafting our rapids, sampling our local brews, ziplining on our ski resort or fly fishing the Blue River and mountain lakes?

Use the guides below to get inspired and plan the perfect summer getaway in the mountains.
