Description
Breckenridge is snow for the Sunshine, snow and service. You can understand why it's been a British favourite for many years. The resort centre is an old wild west mining town, that also have plenty of character and ambience. It has a lively apres ski with plenty of bars and restaurants. Again, as with most American resorts the ski area is suitable for all levels of skier and combined with another four resorts on your lift pass, it certainly will not dissapoint.
