Kick back, relax, and enjoy the stunning mountain scenery on this day trip from Denver to Breckenridge before you spend a few hours exploring the charming mountain town at your leisure. With plenty to offer beyond its iconic slopes, you can shop, grab elevated bites and drinks, ride the free gondola up the mountain, go sledding, take a snowy walk in the woods, or even visit the famous troll. The choices are yours!
Along the way, we’ll visit the world-famous Red Rocks, cross over the Continental Divide, and stop for photo ops. The best part? We’ll drive!
Duration: 8 hours
Departing at: 9AM
Season: Fall/Winter
Our Breckenridge tour departs from Union Station and makes its first stop at the stunning Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre where we’ll get out to explore the renowned music venue. We’ll then drive deep into the Rocky Mountains reaching Loveland Pass where we’ll cross the Continental Divide at 11,990 feet. We will stop one more time at the Sapphire Point Overlook for a stunning photo op overlooking the Dillon Reservoir.
Then, it’s on to Breckenridge. Once we arrive, we’ll take a short walk to visit the famous Breckenridge Troll. From here, you can either explore the charming Victorian town on your own or join your guide for a little fun in the snow and go sledding. Even if you go sledding, you’ll still have time after to grab lunch and drinks in one of Breck’s many cozy restaurants and pubs, do some shopping, walk along Main Street and the river, and/or ride the gondola up the mountain.
Your guide will help you choose how to spend your time wisely but the choices are yours.
We’ll round back up into the van once we’ve all had our fix and be back in Denver before dark. You don’t need an Epic pass to enjoy Breckenridge in winter. We’ll show you.
