Why Choose Breckenridge Skiing

The Victorian Town of Breckenridge Colorado and its Rocky Mountain real estate closely interface with the Breckenridge Ski Resort.  When the BreckConnect Gondola opened on 2007 New Year’s Eve, Main Street, Downtown, and the Resort became directly linked.  Nestled up to the Resort, a variety of Breckenridge real estate features options for 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-bedroom condos, exclusive ski-in/ski-out condominiums and single-family Breckenridge CO homes.  Families definitely appreciate the balance of Breckenridge skiing, Town activities, and real estate within walking distance.

The Ten Mile Range extends from Hoosier Pass to Frisco real estate near Lake Dillon.  As Breckenridge Ski Resort extends along four peaks of the spine of the Ten Mile Range, it is surrounded by some of North America’s highest peaks, magnificent views, and challenges and comforts for everyone. 

Featuring beginning, intermediate, and expert terrain, all of the 2,358 acres and 155 runs are presently on Peak 7, Peak 8, Peak 9, and Peak 10.  The resort boasts four professionally designed terrain parks that are acknowledged around the world plus a slew of marvelous Back Bowls.  The Resort also plans to add 400 more acres of terrain on Peak 6.

The moderate terrain on Peak 7 opened for the 2004-2005 season.  Its wide-open runs, excellent cruisers, and less-crowded slopes are appealing for people who want space to lay down arching turns.  Future plans on Peak 7 include snowmaking and a ski school and restaurant at the midway unloading station.

Peak 8 features the highest chairlift in North America, the Imperial Express Superchair.  Reaching 12,840 feet, the lift accesses some of Colorado’s steepest terrain and endless possibilities for top-notch ski experiences with unparalleled views.  From lake chutes on the east face to cruising down Imperial Bowl, Peak 8 is exciting. 

The perfectly manicured green runs on Peak 9 are accessed on Quicksilver lift.  Beginners and intermediate skiers flock to Peak 9.  More challenging terrain is available at Devil’s Crotch and Mine Shaft on top of the mountain via Beaver Rim lift.

Peak 10 offers wonderful tree skiing, long mogul runs, and perfectly groomed corduroy.  On the south side are great steeps and hidden powder stashes through Mustang.  This is the place to see the entire Upper Blue Valley.
