Breckenridge and Activities
|
Breckenridge is a charming Victorian
village on the Western Slope of the
Continental Divide. It still has the feel of
the old west when minors rushed to
Colorado in the hopes of earning their
riches in gold.
Where is Breckenridge?
Breckenridge is located in the Central Rocky Mountains of Colorado, 98 miles west of Denver. You
will find Breckenridge an easy destination to travel to whether you fly and take a shuttle or opt to
drive yourself. See the Breckenridge web site for maps and driving directions.

Most travelers fly into Denver International Airport (DIA) and the Colorado Springs Airport.
Both DIA and Colorado Springs Airport provide ground transportation.
