.....Breckenridge, Colorado

Now best known for its world-class ski resort, Breckenridge Colorado, the oldest and largest Colorado town in high-altitude Summit County, also affords a rich mining and frontier history that's been diligently protected by Breckenridge locals. In fact, the town's 254-building National Historic District is one of the largest in Colorado. The Summit Historical Society regularly shows off seven historic sites on their 12-block public walking tour of downtown Breckenridge.

Two interesting spots include the 1875 Carter Museum and Barn, which is said to be the oldest museum in Colorado, and the abandoned Country Boy hard-rock mine, where visitors can pan for gold near the Blue River - the place where gold was first panned in Colorado in 1859.

Skiers rave about the massive, yet accessible four-mountain resort at Breckenridge, where 2,043 acres of ski runs practically bump into town, offering both families and expert skiers something to slide down. In the summer, Colorado sport enthusiasts should try the Jack Nicklaus-designed public golf course or explore the 100 miles of paved biking trails leading to Keystone, Frisco, or Vail.

And at night Breckenridge Colorado earns its reputation as one of the best party towns in the Rocky Mountains. Visitors young and old will enjoy the great variety of eateries and fine dining, and shops that entice the imagination and please the pocketbook.

As a quaint mountain town tucked away in the Ten Mile Range, Breckenridge, Colorado, offers endless spring and summer fun. You can take a swing at the 27-hole Jack Nicklaus-designed Breckenridge Golf Club or break out your kayak for the Breckenridge Kayak Park - the longest in the entire state of Colorado. Numerous other diversions will seduce you as well including rafting, hiking, fly fishing, gold panning, jeep rentals, horseback riding and biking. Mountain bikers can take to the mountains on over 200 miles of off-road paths. Historical Tours and Mine Tours are given daily by the Summit Historical Society.

What makes a Breckenridge, Colorado vacation unlike any other vacation experience? The freedom to soar on the slopes, snowshoe through the backcountry, unwind at one of the many spas or stay overnight in a secluded Yurt. So even if you don't ski, there are plenty of reasons to head to the Rocky Mountains for a memorable Colorado experience.

Breckenridge.... an experience you'll never forget...
