About Breckenridge Ski Resort

Breckenridge spreads 2,908 skiable acres and 187 trails across five peaks, numbered 6 through 10, with about 40 percent of the terrain above treeline. The Imperial Express SuperChair climbs to 12,840 feet, which the resort calls the highest lift in North America. The 4 O'Clock Run carries you from high on the mountain down into the historic downtown. In summer the free BreckConnect Gondola runs for hiking and biking, and there is an Alpine Slide.
