From Snowy Peaks to Historic Streets
Tips for Your Trip
Know Before You Go
Sunshine
This part of Colorado receives about 300 days of sunshine a year, so even when it's cold outside, things like sunscreen, glasses, and hats are important.
Altitude
If you've never experienced a significant altitude change, understanding how to prep can make for a smooth transition. Breckenridge is higher than most Colorado areas, at 9,600 feet.
Hydration
Drinking lots of water, especially if you're going to be enjoying the town's craft beer scene or you love caffeine, will help ward off altitude sickness. Try to match each alcoholic or caffeinated drink with a glass of water.
Pacing
Don't overdo it right out of the gate. Give yourself a day or two to acclimatize. A short walk and an early night on day one goes a long way.
Shop Bags
Bags aren't free here. To save yourself the .50 cent fee at stores and restaurants, take a reusable tote. This commitment to reducing waste is just one of many ways Breckenridge is working to preserve the area's magnificence for generations to come.
Getting Around
The Main Street Trolley provides free transportation in downtown Breckenridge, making it easy to explore without a car.
