Off the slopes

Due to altitude, you'll need really warm clothes when off the piste - but it really is worth it. An old mining village, Breckenridge offers lots of bars and restaurants as well as a range of off-piste activities including a sports centre, gym, ice rink and para-gliding. For a family skiing break, without a doubt Breckenridge is a top destination that offers childcare facilities, entertainment and on-piste ski schools.

WE LIKE

  • Local mountains have something for all abilities - good for mixed groups
  • Efficient lifts mean few queues - just 2hours from Denver
  • Some slope-side accommodation for ski-in ski-out

WE DON'T LIKE

  • Limited expert terrain with long runs
  • Best advanced slopes can be closed by wind
  • The altitude means you may spend the first couple of days 'out of puff' as you get used to it
