General info:

When gold was discovered along the Blue River in the 1800’s, miners flocked to Breckenridge to seek their fortune. Today skiers and snowboarders head to Breckenridge seeking something almost as valuable: the perfect mountain town.
While the town’s Victorian architecture and designation as Colorado’s largest historic district make a trip to Breckenridge an aesthetically appealing and historically enriching experience, the array of activities - from powder and groomers to shopping, dining and nightlife - keep things exciting. Breckenridge has its own pulse, and visitors feel it as soon as they arrive.
