The Breckenridge Nordic Center used to be a regular stop on my trips to Summit County. It won't be anymore. There is now so much development so close to most trails that the essential experience is ruined. We felt like we were skiing through a suburban development. The area away from development--still lovely--is far too difficult for most skiers, with... More

The absolute stillness and quiet except the sounds of nature. The variety of trails. The lessons, & the guided snowshoe walks. More

If you snowshoe this is the place to do it. The trails are well maintained and the equipment is top of the line. The staff is very helpful and offered a few extras (backpack, neopreen boots) at no extra charge. If going it alone you feel safe as they take your cell # and let you know you can call... More

While slowing woking my way through a 5k route on the well-groomed trails, a coyote sprinted 20 yards in front of me in the knee-deep snow -- quite a sight! Rental and course fee was a bargain at only $34, or about a fourth what a day on the Breck slopes would cost. Great exercise and fresh air -- I... More

My sister and I went cross country skiing and snow shoeing at the Breckenridge Nordic Center. I'd been to Frisco before last year and came to realize both centers are owned by the same people. The staff is knowledgeable and kind and there are a variety of trails for both skiing and snow shoeing. If you rent your equipment there,... More
